Do NOT use it on wood based composites like masonite; its burns them and destroys the wheel edge, too. I found that it's average at cutting sheet metal roofing but works wonderfully on synthetic compsites like fiberglass and vinyl. Beware of blowing dust and cutting fumes when using the metal cutting wheel. It does best on smaller, thinner stock. I have used this metal cutting disk with my Zipmate on the Rebel model Rotozip. The Zipmate works well on a Rebel, but takes some patience and practice to master. Have plenty of ventilation in the area where it is used and wear goggles and a dust mask. With the metal cutting wheel, it's like a little cutoff machine, but not for big, heavy iron pieces.
Undoubtedly, This is the best device for making a fast metal cut. I used it for cutting a 1"x1" 1/16" thick iron angle and it was cutted well and fast, but the ZWMET1 disk got wasted, it reduced to 1/2 diameter, I suppose, because I did not use it in the right angle because The Zip Mate does not let You see the cutting line completely.The ZWMET1 is cheap and with practice, You'll make it work more efficiently that I did, so the first time, buy some of them.Bye.
