A warehouse always ready with abrasives for industrial work

We stock industrial abrasives for cutting, grinding, sanding and finishing metal, ready for fast delivery.
Whether you're cutting a profile, grinding down a weld or prepping a surface before painting, choosing the right abrasive changes both the result and the time it takes. That's why we back every supply with technical advice to help you pick the product best suited to your material and machine.

Abrasive categories available

Our range covers the main abrasive categories used in industrial metalworking.
Each category has a specific use: cutting and grinding discs fit angle grinders, wheels fit bench grinders, and belts fit sanders and belt grinders.

  • Cutting and grinding discs
  • Abrasive wheels for grinders and workbenches
  • Abrasive belts for sanders and belt grinders
  • Abrasive paper and cloth
  • Flap discs and abrasive brushes

How to choose the right abrasive: material, grit and finish

Choosing the right abrasive depends on three factors: the material you're working with, the type of operation (cutting, grinding or finishing) and the surface finish you want to achieve.
Stainless steel calls for abrasives free of iron and sulphur, to avoid contamination that can lead to corrosion. On aluminium and other soft metals, a more open grit works better, reducing disc clogging.
Grit size affects the result: a coarse grit removes more material and suits heavy grinding work, while a fine grit is used for finishing before painting.
Diameter and thickness also need to match your machine: a disc that isn't compatible with your grinder gives worse results and is dangerous to use.

F.A.Q.

We supply the main categories used in industrial metalworking, including cutting and grinding discs, wheels, belts and abrasive paper.

Yes. If a product isn't among our stocked items, our technical team will identify the best solution and arrange to source it.

A cutting disc is thin and rigid, designed to slice through material in a single pass while limiting overheating. A grinding disc is thicker, built to remove excess material and weld beads. Using one in place of the other shortens its life and can be dangerous.
