Cutting and grinding is one of the most important and versatile working techniques in trade. Whether stone, metal, concrete or granite: with the right cutting disc, materials can be cut cleanly, precisely and efficiently. However, the quality of the discs is always decisive for a good result.
At Weischer Werkzeuge & Bohrtechnik, you will only find high-quality cutting discs that have been developed for exact cuts and a long service life.
What happens during cutting and grinding?
When cutting and grinding, a material is separated by a rapidly rotating disc. The goal: a smooth, clean and chip-free edge as much as possible.
Especially with hard materials like stone or granite, the quality of the disc plays an important role. Only stable, precisely manufactured cutting discs ensure safe work and convincing results.
The Angle Grinder – where does the term come from?
Many simply call the angle grinder an "Flex". This name actually has a historical background:
- In the 1920s, the company Ackermann + Schmitt developed the first flexible shaft.
- The grinding disc was replaced by a bevel gear.
- This created the typical tool we know today as an angle grinder.
Since then, the verb "flexing" has often been used synonymously with "cutting and grinding".
All our cutting discs are, of course, suitable for common angle grinders – whether professional or DIY tools.
How do I find the right cutting disc for my material?
Not every cutting disc is suitable for every material. For perfect cuts, it is important to consider the exact material properties.

Safety when cutting and grinding – what you need to pay attention to
Cutting and grinding is efficient but potentially dangerous. Correct handling is therefore all the more important.
1. Observe peripheral speed
Every cutting disc has a maximum permissible speed.
This must never be exceeded.
2. Check disc before use
Before starting work:
- Visual inspection for cracks or damage
- Brief test run at idle speed
Damaged discs must never be used.
3. Start gently & with little pressure
A common mistake: too much force.
Instead, the following applies:
- Apply the disc slowly
- Use even, light pressure
This prevents jamming or overloading.
4. Adjust protective guard correctly
The protective guard of the angle grinder must cover at least
175° of the disc circumference – for your own safety.
5. Secure workpiece safely
The material must not move during cutting.
Stable clamping prevents dangerous kickbacks.
6. Sparks away from the body
Always direct the spark trail away from your body and keep your distance from other people.
7. Protective clothing is mandatory
This includes:
- Safety glasses
- Hearing protection
- Gloves
- Sturdy clothing
Flying splinters or sparks can cause serious injuries.
