Are Angle Grinder Blades Universal?

Are Angle Grinder Blades Universal?

The short answer is no, angle grinder blades are not universal. There are several important considerations when selecting a blade for your angle grinder:

1. Blade Size: Angle grinders come in various sizes, and the blades must match the grinder’s specifications. Common sizes are 4.5 inches (115 mm), 5 inches (125 mm), 7 inches (180 mm), and 9 inches (230 mm). Using the wrong size can cause improper fit and unsafe operation.

2. Arbor Size: The arbor is the spindle on which the blade is mounted. Blades have different arbor hole sizes, commonly 5/8 inches (16 mm) or 7/8 inches (22 mm). Ensure the blade's arbor hole fits your grinder’s arbor size.

3. Blade Type: Different blades are designed for specific materials and purposes, such as:

   • Cutting Discs: For metal, stone, or tile.
   • Grinding Discs: For smoothing surfaces.
   • Flap Discs: For sanding and polishing.
   • Diamond Blades: For hard materials like concrete and masonry.

4. RPM Rating: Blades have a maximum RPM rating that must match or exceed the grinder’s speed. Using a blade with a lower RPM than the grinder can lead to dangerous situations.

5. Material Compatibility: Ensure the blade material is suitable for the task. For instance, use metal cutting discs for steel and diamond blades for masonry.
