Cutting Disc Bosch F550 Expert for Metal 2608608Y05

The Bosch F550 Expert for Metal cutting disc (2608608Y05) is a high-performance abrasive disc designed for metalworking. With a 125 mm diameter and 1 mm thickness, it is intended for fast material removal, surface preparation and precise cutting tasks on a range of metals including carbon steel, steel alloys, stainless steel (Inox), titanium and aluminium. The disc uses zirconia alumina grit bonded to vulcanised fibre F-paper and is backed with a hook-and-loop fastening system for quick changes and secure mounting on compatible angle grinders.

Advantages

The zirconia alumina abrasive delivers a high material removal rate and long service life, approaching the performance of fibre discs while maintaining the handling benefits of a cutting disc. Vulcanised F-paper provides wear resistance and dimensional stability under heavy-duty use. An electrostatically applied close-grain distribution and cooling additives improve sanding and cutting behaviour on metal surfaces, reducing heat build-up and preserving edge quality. The hook-and-loop Bosch direct force backing enables fast, tool-free disc changes.

Suitable for

• Cutting and roughing of carbon steel and steel alloys
• Cutting, derusting and finishing of stainless steel (Inox) and titanium
• Deburring and surface preparation before welding
• Cleaning and processing of aluminium and non-ferrous metals

How to use

Mount the disc on a compatible angle grinder following the tool manufacturer’s safety instructions and ensure the hook-and-loop backing is securely attached. Operate the grinder at the recommended speed for a 125 mm disc and apply steady, even pressure; avoid excessive force that could overheat the disc. Use the disc for cutting, sanding or surface roughing as required, and replace the disc when abrasive performance decreases or if the disc shows visible damage.

Recommendations

Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (eye protection, gloves, hearing protection and respiratory protection). Use the disc only for the intended materials (steel, stainless steel, titanium, aluminium and non-ferrous metals) and observe the maximum safe speed of your angle grinder. Store discs flat in a dry environment to preserve backing and abrasive properties.
