Tom: Even with a weak 5 amp grinder, i can push with this thin disc and it wont stall. Cuts 1/4" steel like a dream and wears nice and slow.. Be careful how you cut and always inspect the disc for damage. Because of its thickness, this thing is a higher risk for shattering and seriously injuring someone. I may put the guard back on while i get used to it.
Wear your PPE guys.

Jimmy, Making It Work: I bought these Makita cut off wheels based on the brand, not knowing what to expect but wanting to avoid the cheap cut off wheels that only last a few seconds. These last a decent amount of time, but not nearly as long as some of the premium brands I've used. Of course they cost less, so the math hasn't been sorted out yet, still trying to decide if I should spend more money for longer lasting ones next time.

JPear: The media could not be loaded. This is the first time I've used an angle grinder, so I can't offer an experienced opinion. However, I am pleased with how this cutting wheel performed. For my test run I cut two 1/4 inch solid steel rods. That was fun. After that I cut 3 old horseshoe posts that were put up in the early 60's in my parents back yard, I don't have a clue why there was 3 and not 2. Anyway, it cut through them like butter, and 2 of them had concrete in them. As a first time user I couldn't help but be impressed. Those five cuts--the 2 practice cuts+the horseshoe cuts--were all done on the same disk. The disk was pretty much shot after that, I could have maybe squeezed out 2 more very small, light cuts on it but that's it. I video recorded cutting one horseshoe for all it's worth. I know the video doesn't prove anything but it might have some informational value for some potential buyers. So anyway, I couldn't be happier with these, they solved my problem and worked extremely well. I see no reason why I shouldn't give them 5 stars.
UPDATE: It's now several months later and I feel the need to edit my previous comment. I had stated that the disk I'd used to...

Greg: I have recently decided to get into blacksmithing and needed a forge. I went a somewhat different route and picked up an old fire extinguisher and am using it. I bought an angle grinder a few weeks ago and picked up a few cut-off discs to go with it. After opening the package for the discs I just had a gut feeling that if I used the discs for anything other than a soft material then I would end up hurt so I opted to get some reputable cut-off discs. I purchased the 10 pack and I am beyond ecstatic about these discs. I had to but through the extinguisher from the top to the bottom and then connect both cuts at the top and bottom to create a lid that comes off. For you that don't know just how thick the extinguishers are, imagine cutting through something almost as thick as an Ethernet cable because that is how thick it was. I used 3 cut-off discs in the process and I am still able to use the third. The second one I was too rough with so it burned out fairly quick. Most discs will begin to crack and snap and fling shards but I never had that issue with these. If you want some quality discs that will hold and rip through thick steel then you want these. I am about to buy more just so...

Henri Laaksonen: Great cutting discs for the price.
Nice thin disc for accurate cutting.
Tuff enough for thicker material also.
