- Cutting Performance
In metal-cutting trials—ranging from 6 mm MS rods to 10 mm stainless sheets—the Yuri Go Green wheel delivered rapid, clean cuts with negligible burrs. The WA 60 S abrasive grade ensures aggressive material removal at a steady feed rate, while the 1 mm thickness balances cut speed with minimal kerf loss. Even under continuous operation, heat buildup remained moderate, thanks to its low-dust resin bond, prolonging cutting efficiency.
- Durability Wear Resistance
Durability hinges on abrasive retention and bond strength. Over 50 meters of cut length on 8 mm MS plates, the wheel showed only 10% diameter reduction, outperforming generic wheels that often drop 15 – 20% under similar conditions. The reinforced nylon mesh embedded in its core resists cracking, providing consistent wheel integrity even at 15 200 rpm. In harsh shop environments, this translates to fewer wheel changes and lower downtime.
- Safety Considerations
Safety nets and balanced weight distribution minimize vibration and risk of shattering. The green resin bond not only lowers dust but also emits fewer toxic fumes compared to darker phenolic wheels. Always observe PPE protocols—use wheel guards, gloves, and face shields, especially when working on stainless steel, to protect against sparks and micro-fractures.
- Comparative Value Analysis
Feature | Yuri Go Green | Competitor A | Competitor B |
Price per piece | ₹9.50 – ₹11.50 | ₹12.00 – ₹14.00 | ₹8.00 – ₹10.00 |
Average life (m) | ~60 m | ~50 m | ~40 m |
Dust emission | Low | Moderate | High |
Origin | India | Imported (China) | India |
Eco-friendly bond | Yes | No | No |
Despite a marginally higher unit cost than some domestic brands, the extended service life and lower health-hazard emissions render the Yuri is better long-term investment.
- Who Should Use It?
- Metal fabricators seeking a green, safe abrasive for daily use.
- Construction contractors needing consistent cuts on structural steel.
- DIY hobbyists wanting premium performance without hefty price tags.
