The CGW 35516 is a 5-inch cutting wheel designed for fast metal cutting on steel and stainless steel surfaces. This Type 1 wheel features a .045-inch thickness and an 7/8-inch arbor, making it compatible with common right-angle grinders and other compatible tools used in facility maintenance and metalworking tasks. Its zirconia-aluminum oxide blend is selected to balance aggressive cutting action with extended wheel life, providing a practical option for jobs requiring repeated passes or longer run times before sharpening.
Constructed to handle demanding cutting applications, the wheel’s 36-grit zirconia composition helps provide efficient material penetration while maintaining durability under typical workshop conditions. The specification set indicates a maximum operating speed up to 12,200 RPM, which underscores the need to match wheel speed to the tool’s rated RPM for safe operation. This wheel is packaged as single units, with a box quantity of 25, making it suitable for maintenance stock where multiple cuts may be required over time. When selecting this wheel, verify the arbor size and diameter to ensure proper fitment with your grinding equipment and to achieve the intended cut quality.
