CGW 35576 is a Type 1 cutting wheel designed for use on chop saws, rated to handle metal and steel materials. The wheel measures 14 inches in diameter, with a thickness of 3/32 inch and a 1-inch arbor. It uses a 36-grit aluminum oxide abrasive, a common choice for metals that require a balance of speed, cut rate, and wheel life. The product is available with aluminum oxide abrasive reinforced with fiberglass—single (SR) or double (DR) layers—as appropriate for the application, contributing to wheel rigidity and resistance to breakage during cutting. This particular wheel is specified at a hard, P-grade hardness and is rated for up to 4400 RPM, which aligns with typical chop saw performance envelopes for consistent cutting action on metal sections.
This wheel is packaged for purchase in ones per box, with a box quantity of 10 indicating the standard stocking and fulfillment configuration. The 1-inch arbor is compatible with standard chop saws that support this hub size, facilitating straightforward mounting and alignment for perpendicular cuts typical in metal fabrication and maintenance tasks. When selecting a wheel, compatibility considerations include matching wheel diameter, thickness, arbor size, and the intended material (metal and steel) to achieve appropriate cut quality and wheel life. Regular inspection for cracks, glazing, or wear is recommended, especially after heavy-use cycles, to maintain safe operation and predictable cut performance.
