cautionary note screwfix sell a mini chopsaw only 39.99 a neat compact thing?but do not sell replacement discs @150 x2.5 x22.2 mounting and guess what nobody else seems to oh BUGGER. I only managed to get ten cuts out of it and its bottomed out martin

150mm = 6".

You've probably already looked at this, but would 6" grinder metal cutting discs not fit (available from local DIY store)?

well the problem lies in the spidle centre@22.2 which is usually for 300+ discs and most small angle grinders are between 115 &125 not 150 they then start up again at 180. i have been given a disc to try 150 x3.2!!! not sure if the motor will like spinning through material though. thanx for the thought

I believe there are 15mm-22mm spindle adapters out there.

Let us know if you find a source of suitable discs.

Cheers

There are 180x22.2x3mm blades available and various sizes in stainless cutting discs with the 22.2mm centre.

The AS30 flat at the bottom of the page sound favourite. The centre spindle adaptors usually go the other way to what you need on this occasion.

I've just bought a 150mm grinding disk with a 22.2 bore from B&Q warehouse!

Hope this helps.
