Typical abrasive wheels scenarios on North-East Scotland sites

  1. Scenario 1

    Cutting stainless on a fabrication bench with localised LEV

  2. Scenario 2

    Field cutting threaded bar with a 9-inch angle grinder near other trades

  3. Scenario 3

    Bench-grinder dressing and tool-rest gap (max 1.6 mm) routine

Audit findings this prevents

  • Wrong wheel on the wrong machine — RPM mismatch is the #1 burst-wheel cause
  • Guards removed 'for the awkward cut' and never refitted
  • No ring-test or storage discipline — moisture-damaged wheels then run at full speed
