The MK Diamond DiamondX Pipeline Disc is a diamond abrasive disc from MK's DiamondX metal-cutting line, sized at 4 inches for work on pipe and structural steel. Unlike a bonded abrasive wheel, a diamond disc does not shed material and shrink as it works, so the disc holds its diameter and its cutting geometry over a much longer service life. Pipeline crews, fabricators and welders buy from this line for cutting, grinding, weld joint removal and surface preparation on metal.
Specifications
- Diameter: 4 inches (102 mm)
- Arbor: 5/8 inch
- Grit: 50
- Maximum operating speed: 15,300 RPM
MK publishes the specification table above for this part and no further detail. MK does not publish a disc thickness, a wet or dry rating, or a recommended tool type for the 4-inch pipeline disc, so none is stated here.
Materials
The following material list is published by MK for the DiamondX line as a whole, not for this individual part number: high and low carbon steel, hard facing alloys, ductile iron, cast iron, rail track steel, section bar and tube, wood, plastic, FRP, PVC and ceramic.

Fits
MK publishes no compatible tool or machine list for this disc. Before use, confirm that your grinder accepts a 4-inch disc on a 5/8-inch arbor and that its no-load speed does not exceed the 15,300 RPM maximum above. Follow your tool manufacturer's guarding and speed requirements.
