IIRSM & CPD Approved Abrasive Wheels E-Learning Course

There is a wide range of tools and processes that use abrasive wheels, and ensuring these are used
correctly and safely is of paramount importance. Applications range from hand grinding to disc
cutting. They can be used at all stages of a work process, for making preliminary cuts and scores in
materials, or for fine polishing and finishing.

Different wheels have different properties and characteristics suited to particular tasks. They
also have different weaknesses and can pose different risks and hazards in handling and use. For this
reason, it’s important that you always select the right abrasive wheel for the job and use it with the
right machinery.

This course covers the anatomy of an abrasive wheel, the dangers associated with its use, storage
and handling, and so much more.
