We investigate the disconnection time of a simple random walk in a discrete cylinder with a large finite connected base. In a recent article of A. Dembo and the author it was found that for large $N$ the disconnection time of $G_N\times\mathbb{Z}$ has rough order $|G_N|^2$, when $G_N=(\mathbb{Z}/N\mathbb{Z})^d$. In agreement with a conjecture by I. Benjamini, we show here that this behavior has broad generality when the bases of the discrete cylinders are large connected graphs of uniformly bounded degree.
