It should go without saying, but cutting with Diamond Technology is just better. We see that firsthand with Bosch’s latest Expert Diamond Metal Wheel Cutting Discs, perfect for those hardcore metal cutting jobs.
You’d think finding new innovations in something as small as a cutting disc would be impossible. And yet, Bosch continues to pack as much into each new launch as possible.

We see this in the Expert Diamond Metal Wheel Cutting Discs, which make your metal cutting jobs seamless and stress-free.
For this Tough Test, we met up with tradie Kevin Rad from New Age Facades. His team are working on the new Craigieburn Shopping Centre to Melbourne’s north, and need cutting discs that can tackle a tonne of metal cutting day in, day out.
Test #1: Smooth cuts
Kevin used the cutting discs on a couple of different metals, including aluminium box section (3mm thick), aluminium z-angle (2mm thick) and steel battens (1.5mm).
“They’re incredible mate, I can’t talk these up enough,” Kevin said.
“Honestly, it cut through all three like butter.”
These cutting discs are able to mow through metal materials thanks to a few Bosch specialties, including Diamond Technology.
The diamond grit in the tips of each disc does exactly what you think it would – cut metal materials like a pro.
“My old blades struggled really hard when it came to cutting the aluminium box sections,” Kevin said.
“These Bosch discs cut through them like it was nothing.”
Test #2: Long-lasting
Now any level-headed tradie might wonder – does this awesome cutting power come at the cost of longevity?
Those tradies will be pleased to know that these Expert Diamond Metal Wheel Cutting Discs last 100x longer than Bosch 2608603169 Cutting Disc.
“We’ve been cutting metal for two days straight with one disc, and the cuts are just as pure as they were on day one,” Kevin said.
“It’s a huge timesaver having one disc for all this work, and even more of a blessing for the wallet.
“We’ve cut through a fair bit of metal, and you can barely tell from the look of the disc.”
Separating themselves further from standard cutting discs, these Expert Diamond cutting discs don’t emit chemical odours, are shatterproof and have no expiration date.
Not only do the discs last a while; they also support Bosch’s X-LOCK system, making them a breeze to click on and off an angle grinder.
Shining bright
Kevin has always been a massive Bosch fan, and these Expert Diamond Metal Wheel Cutting Discs have only given him more confidence in the brand.
Confidence in knowing these durable discs will tackle some of the hardest metal cutting jobs with ease.
As well as confidence that he can use the same blade for extended periods without seeing a drop in cut quality.
“These are 100 per cent gonna become my new daily discs,” Kevin said.
“I’m really happy with the end product.”
