Abrasive Wheels Awareness

Abrasive wheels are mainly used for cutting materials and surfaces, but some types are also used for deburring, polishing and finishing. Abrasive wheels are used widely in construction projects, including plumbing and welding.

The major workplace hazard associated with the abrasive wheel is its disintegration due to speed, which may send metal pieces flying through the workplace and into your eyes. It also causes respiratory disorders by inhaling the dust and fumes generated by the grinders.

Abrasive wheels rotate at the speed of about 6,000 to 15,000 rpm, so you can imagine the injuries they should cause on coming in contact with skin.
