The DEWALT DW8725 cutting wheel is a 6-inch, A60 medium grit abrasive wheel that cuts through steel and stainless steel with ease. Its .040-inch thin profile shears quickly and leaves a clean, burr-free edge. Two full sheets of fiberglass provide durability and safety, and the proprietary material mix extends wheel life.
DEWALT DW8725 Metal Cutting Wheel: Fast and Durable
When you need a wheel for everyday metal cutting, the DW8725 is a solid pick. The aluminum oxide grain is aggressive enough for stainless steel, while the thin profile reduces friction and heat. This wheel is ideal for angle grinders with a 7/8-inch arbor.
Cutting Stainless Steel with the DW8725
Yes, the DW8725 can cut stainless steel. A60 aluminum oxide is well-suited for this application. For best results, use moderate pressure and keep the cut moving to avoid overheating the work.
Built for Speed
This wheel is designed for quick cuts with less resistance. The .040-inch thickness removes less material, so the cut is faster and the wheel lasts longer. Use it for cutting sheet metal, angle iron, and other ferrous materials.

Product Details
Choosing the Right Grit
The A60 grit is a medium grain. It's coarse enough to cut quickly but fine enough to produce a decent surface finish. For heavy grinding, you might prefer a coarser A36 wheel, but for cutting, A60 is a great all-around choice.
Maximizing Wheel Life
Let the wheel do the work—don't force it. Use the grinder's guard and keep the wheel perpendicular to the work. Avoid side grinding with a Type 1 wheel, as it can crack the fiberglass and cause breakage.
Safety First
Always wear eye and face protection. Check the wheel for damage before mounting. Ensure the arbor size matches your grinder and tighten the flange securely.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can the DW8725 cut stainless steel?
Yes, the A60 aluminum oxide wheel is suitable for stainless steel. For best results, use light-to-moderate pressure and keep the cut moving.
What is the difference between DW8725 and other wheels?
This wheel is .040" thick, thinner than standard .045" or .060" wheels, so it cuts faster with less material loss and less heat build-up.
Does it fit all 6-inch grinders?
It fits any 6-inch angle grinder with a 7/8-inch arbor, which is the standard size for most grinders.
Can this wheel be used for masonry?
No, this wheel is designed for metal cutting. Use a diamond or abrasive wheel specifically rated for masonry.

Stainless steel
Used it on stainless steel and it worked perfectly. The .040 thickness makes a nice narrow cut. I like the A60 grit.
