A kit for metal fabricating shops that includes three types of specialty abrasive wheels for grinding, blending and cutting stainless steel is available from Rex-Cut Products Inc.

Stainless Steel Kit includes a Type 27 Sigma Green grinding wheel for fast stock removal on welds, a cotton-fiber blending and finishing wheel that leaves a 32 RMS or better finish, and four thin-profile Alpha Green cut-off wheels which are only 0.045" thick and cut faster and cooler than conventional wheels because of their thin profile, claims the firm.

Available in 4-½" and 5" dia. versions, Rex-Cut Stainless Steel Kits are packaged in handy plastic clamshells for storage. Suitable for a wide range of stainless steel applications involving tube, pipe and bar stock, these kits also provide an easy trial opportunity for fabricators.

The Rex-Cut Stainless Steel 4-½" Kit sells for $22.86 (list) and the 5" kit is $25.11 (list).
