Oasis cutting discs are a range of abrasive products used for cutting various materials, including metal, stainless steel, and stone. The manufacturer, Oasis Abrasives, offers discs made from high-quality materials such as aluminum oxide and silicon carbide to ensure durability and fast, efficient cutting. 

Types of Oasis cutting discs

Cutting discs for iron and carbon steel

Abrasive: Typically use conventional aluminum oxide, but some feature SG (seeded gel) aluminum oxide for enhanced toughness and longer life.

Purpose: Engineered for general metal fabrication and construction work.

Features: SG aluminum oxide discs have better heat dissipation, prevent clogging, and self-sharpen, leading to more efficient cuts.

Sizes: Available in multiple sizes to fit various angle grinders and cut-off machines, such as 9" (230mm) for heavy-duty jobs. 

Cutting discs for stainless steel (Inox)

Abrasive: Also use aluminum oxide, but formulated to prevent contamination and discoloration of stainless steel.

Purpose: Ideal for cutting stainless steel sheets, pipes, and other parts.

Features: Meet international standards and safety certifications, such as MPA Hannover testing in Germany, ensuring quality and safe operation.

Specs: Available in ultra-thin versions, like the 4.5" (115mm) slim cutting disc, for minimal material loss and high precision. 

Cutting discs for non-ferrous metals

Abrasive: Made with silicon carbide, which is specifically suited for cutting softer metals.

Purpose: Used for cutting copper, aluminum, and their alloys.

Performance: Silicon carbide is very hard and sharp, allowing for fast, clean cuts on these materials. 

How to choose the right Oasis cutting disc

For maximum precision: For cutting stainless steel or other alloys where a clean finish is critical, choose an Oasis "Inox" or "SG aluminum oxide" disc.

For general metal: For cutting regular iron or carbon steel, a standard aluminum oxide disc provides a cost-effective and durable solution.

For speed and minimal waste: The "super-thin" discs are designed for faster cutting and less material loss, but may be less durable for heavy-duty applications.

Match your tool: Always match the disc's diameter and bore size (center hole) to your grinder or cut-off machine. Oasis offers a wide range of sizes, including common 4.5", 7", 9", and 14" discs.
