Lenox METALMAX is a new alternative to abrasive cut-off wheels. Its breakthrough diamond technology delivers extreme durability to help you maximize work efficiencies and reduce costs in your metal cutting jobs. Lenox METALMAX delivers 1000 or more cuts with no need for wheel changes. That is 30 times longer life than thin bonded cut-off wheels. Average performance for 4-1/2 in wheel in 1 in carbon steel square tube vs. Thin bonded abrasive cut-off wheels. Because Lenox METALMAX is made with diamonds, it doesn't get smaller. The cutting depth stays the same throughout its life, meaning better control, reach and precision. Lenox METALMAX is made with a solid steel body that is stronger to greatly reduce the risk of breakage. With Lenox METALMAX there is less odor and dust residue as the wheel does not wear down like bonded abrasives. Visible sparks originate only from the material being cut. Lenox METALMAX is recommended for multiple types of metal including steel, sheet metal, stainless steel, rebar, cast iron, aluminum and non-ferrous metals. Lenox METALMAX is designed for use in the same power tools as bonded abrasive wheels, at the same RPMs and feed forces. No changes in operating settings are required. Use Lenox METALMAX as you would a bonded abrasive wheel.
