Thread: Angle Grinder - Turbo/Diamond Discs

If it doesn't hit the guard it will be fine. Assuming the guard is still in place. I would 'never' remove a guard because I only had a larger diameter disk on hand and was too lazy to drive to the hardware shop 10 mins down the road because I only had to cut a couple of things.

I had no trouble finding a 100mm diamond blade.....

As has been said, provided it fits inside the guard then no problems. (I believe it's a metric conversion thing.)

At 105mm diameter, that's a mere 2.5mm extra "depth of cut" and it only takes a few cuts before it'll knock it back to 100mm anyway.
