Linde's re-engineered cut-off wheels offer smoother cutting action, faster cutting speed, longer life

MISSISSAUGA, Ontario, Oct. 8, 2015 /CNW/ -- Linde Canada Ltd. has introduced a newly designed  line of Linde branded cut-off grinding wheels that cut through carbon and stainless steels faster and easier.

Mike Clune, project manager-Marketing for Linde Canada, said, "Linde Canada is taking advantage of the global reach and reputation of the Linde organization to deliver the most innovative line of industrial products to the Canadian metal fabrication market. The new product offering is part of a private label program that began in 2010."

The new Linde branded cut-off wheels are premium aluminum oxide abrasives that provide burr free cutting with no sulphur, iron or chlorine in the bond which means no contamination of the work piece. They work particularly well on stainless steel, all types of metals and various alloy steels.

The new cut-off wheel line, designed for right angle grinders, includes six wheels that vary by size and cutting type. "We believe operators will appreciate the comfortable cut the wheels provide as they cut quickly and easily through a variety of steel products," Clune said. "The wheels can cut through carbon and stainless steels up to 20 percent faster than other cut-off wheels on the market, while providing up to 60 percent better wheel life in carbon steel applications and 40 percent better life with stainless steel applications."

The new product offering, available in all 70 Linde branches across Canada, complements Linde's line of abrasive products including grinding wheels, wire brushes and flap discs.
