Aluminium Cutting Discs UK
No-Clogging Aluminium Cutting Discs for UK Trade
Globe ZAC and G1645 aluminium cutting discs are engineered specifically for aluminium and non-ferrous metals. Patented abrasive bonds prevent loading and clogging, delivering clean burr-free cuts throughout the disc life. Trusted by HVAC contractors, sheet metal workers and aluminium fabricators across the UK.
Why Standard Discs Fail on Aluminium
Standard steel cutting discs clog rapidly when used on aluminium — the soft metal fills the abrasive pores, causing the disc to stop cutting, overheat and drag across the surface. Globe ZAC and G1645 discs use a specially formulated ALU abrasive bond that resists loading, stays sharp throughout the disc life and delivers consistently clean cuts with no contamination of the aluminium surface.
Applications & Industries
HVAC & Ducting
Clean, precise cuts on aluminium ductwork, ventilation panels and sheet. No clogging means faster throughput on high-volume HVAC installations.
Sheet Metal Work
Aluminium sheet, plate and tread plate for vehicle bodywork, signage, cladding and general fabrication. Burr-free cuts reduce finishing time.
Aluminium Profiles & Extrusions
Window frames, curtain walling, structural extrusions and architectural profiles. Ultra-thin kerf minimises material loss on expensive aluminium sections.
Non-Ferrous Metals
Copper, brass, bronze and other non-ferrous metals. The ALU bond handles soft metals without loading, making Globe discs versatile across the workshop.

Globe 115mm x 1 x 22mm Aluminium Cutting Disc
115mm · 1mm thick · 22mm bore · A 60ALU bond
Precision-engineered for aluminium and non-ferrous metals. Smooth, burr-free cuts with no material contamination. Long-life construction means more cuts per disc and lower cost per job. Fits all standard 115mm angle grinders.
Patented ZAC BondG1742
Globe ZAC 125mm x 1 x 22mm Aluminium & Non-Ferrous Cutting Disc
125mm · 1mm thick · 22mm bore · Patented ZAC bond · A 60ALU
Patented, Made in Italy aluminium cutting disc. The ZAC abrasive bond delivers ultra-clean, burr-free cuts with zero material contamination — no iron, sulphur or chlorine. Ultra-thin 1mm kerf minimises material loss. No loading or clogging on aluminium. Reduced heat build-up protects the workpiece.
Key Benefits of Globe Aluminium Discs
No Loading or Clogging
Patented ALU abrasive bond resists aluminium build-up in the disc pores, maintaining cut rate throughout disc life.
Zero Contamination
No iron, sulphur or chlorine in the abrasive formula. Keeps aluminium surfaces clean and corrosion-free.
Ultra-Thin 1mm Kerf
Minimal material loss on every cut — essential when working with expensive aluminium extrusions and profiles.
Reduced Heat Build-Up
Lower friction means less heat transferred to the workpiece, preventing warping and discolouration on thin aluminium sheet.
Long Disc Life
Self-sharpening abrasive grain maintains performance as the disc wears, giving more cuts per disc and lower cost per job.

Important Safety Note
Always use discs specifically rated for aluminium and non-ferrous metals. Never use a standard steel cutting disc on aluminium — the clogging risk causes the disc to overheat and can lead to disc failure. Globe ZAC and G1645 discs are clearly marked for aluminium use and are OSA safety certified for professional use.
