The FUJI Raicho Slim Cutting Disc is a premium 105mm (4-inch) cut-off wheel engineered for professionals who demand speed, precision, and safety. Featuring an ultra-thin 1mm profile and a proprietary Japanese abrasive formula, this disc delivers cleaner, faster cuts on stainless steel and metals compared to standard 3mm wheels.
Whether you are in metal fabrication, automotive repair, or construction, the Raicho Slim minimizes material waste and heat buildup, ensuring a burr-free finish every time.
Why Choose FUJI Raicho Slim?
⏳ 3x Longer Lifespan Our advanced abrasive bond retains sharpness significantly longer than conventional discs. Internal testing shows a service life 1.5–3 times longer than standard 105mm wheels, reducing downtime for disc changes.
⚡ Ultra-Fast, Cool Cutting The 1mm thin profile reduces friction and heat generation. This prevents "blue burn" on stainless steel and delivers a clean, burr-free cut that requires little to no post-cut grinding.
🛡️ Double Safety Reinforcement Safety is paramount. The disc is reinforced with double-sided fiberglass mesh (BF2), providing exceptional structural integrity to prevent breakage, even under high stress.
🔧 Multi-Material Versatility One disc for multiple jobs. Engineered to cut Mild Steel, Stainless Steel (INOX), Aluminum, and other non-ferrous metals with consistent performance.

Ideal Industrial Applications
The Raicho Slim excels in environments where precision and speed are critical:
Sheet Metal Fabrication: Cutting thin stainless steel sheets for HVAC, kitchen equipment, or enclosures without warping the metal.
Automotive Bodywork: Precise cutting of rusted bolts, exhaust pipes, and chassis panels in tight spaces.
Structural Steel: Cutting rebar and angle iron on construction sites using portable battery grinders.
Shipbuilding & Marine: Maintenance and repair of metal components where durability is essential.
⚠️ Safety First
PPE Required: Always wear safety glasses, gloves, and hearing protection.
Inspection: Check the disc for cracks or damage before every use. Never exceed the maximum RPM (14,500).
Storage: Store discs flat in a dry environment (humidity <60%) to prevent moisture absorption, which can weaken the bond.
A: A 1mm disc removes less material, meaning less friction and heat. This results in cutting speeds that are up to 2x faster and cleaner cuts that don't need deburring, saving you time and money.
Q: Can I use this disc on a standard 4-inch grinder?
A: Yes, the FUJI Raicho Slim fits all standard 4-inch (100mm/105mm) angle grinders with a 15mm or 16mm arbor. It is fully compatible with our HDC-100 Portable Grinder.
Q: Is this disc suitable for Aluminum?
A: Yes, it can cut aluminum. However, aluminum is soft and can clog abrasive wheels. For dedicated aluminum cutting, we recommend applying a cutting lubricant (wax) to the disc to prevent loading.
Q: What is the shelf life of these discs?
A: Resin-bonded discs have a shelf life of approximately 2-3 years from the manufacture date, provided they are stored correctly in a dry, cool place.
About FUJI Grinding Wheel
With over 70 years of Japanese manufacturing excellence, FUJI Grinding Wheel is a global leader in industrial abrasives. Our commitment to innovation and rigorous quality control ensures that every Raicho Slim disc delivers consistent, safe, and superior performance.
Choosing the correct abrasive wheel is critical for both operational efficiency and JIS-compliant safety. Fuji Grinding Wheels are engineered with precise technical markings to ensure the perfect match for your specific material and machine requirements.
Understanding Fuji Markings (e.g., WA 36 P BF)
Abrasive Type (WA/A/AZ): Determines the suitability for material hardness (e.g., WA for hardened steel, AZ for heavy-duty alloys).
Grit Size (16 - 120): Indicates the coarseness. Lower numbers for rapid removal; higher numbers for precision finishing.
Hardness Grade (L - S): Defines the bond strength. Correct selection prevents premature wheel wear or surface glazing.
Bonding Agent (BF): High-grade Resinoid bond reinforced for high-speed safety and impact resistance.
💡 Expert Selection Tip
For professional export markets, always verify the Peripheral Speed (m/s) compatibility. Fuji wheels are designed to exceed JIS Burst Speed factors, but operating at the recommended R.P.M. ensures the longest tool life and cleanest cut.
Note: Mismatched grit or hardness can lead to excessive heat buildup, affecting the workpiece's structural integrity.

Global Maintenance Standard: To maintain the high safety factor of Fuji wheels, avoid exposure to excessive humidity and chemical solvents during storage. Proper care preserves the resinoid bond's strength, crucial for high-load industrial applications.
Fuji products are manufactured following strict Japanese standard process requirements. Every wheel is engineered to meet or exceed JIS (Japanese Industrial Standards), such as JIS R 6242 and B 4051. Our core engineering logic prioritizes maximum operator protection by maintaining safety factors and burst speed capabilities that often surpass the highest industry benchmarks.

Efficiency Focused: Relies on machine guarding and operational procedures.
1.RPM Compliance: Never exceed the maximum R.P.M. specified on the wheel. Using the sides of the wheels for grinding is strictly prohibited, as it compromises the structural integrity of the abrasive bond.
2.Mandatory Idling: Allow the tool to idle for one minute before beginning work. If a new wheel has been mounted, an idle run of three minutes is required to ensure dynamic stability.
3.Workpiece Stability: All materials must be securely fastened. Improperly secured workpieces can lead to vibration, wheel binding, and unsafe kickback forces.
4.Arbor Hole Integrity: Do not modify or enlarge the metal center of the arbor hole. A proper fit is critical; a mismatched arbor causes eccentric rotation and dangerous vibration levels.
5.PPE Requirements: Industrial-grade face and eye protection are mandatory at all times. Ensure all protective gear meets local safety compliance standards.
6.Guard Protection: Protection guards are designed to contain fragments in the unlikely event of a wheel failure. Never operate tools or machinery with guards removed.

Professional Export & Maintenance Insight
When deploying Fuji high-performance tools in overseas markets, ensure that the regional power grid frequency and voltage match the tool specifications. To maintain the superior burst speed safety of Fuji wheels, store abrasives in a dry, temperate environment. Humidity can degrade the resin bond, potentially lowering the wheel’s resistance to centrifugal forces.
