CGW 35582 14" X 1/8" X 1" Type 1 24-Grit Aluminum Oxide Cutting Wheel

This CGW 35582 cutting wheel is a Type 1, 14-inch diameter cutoff wheel designed for stationary saw use in metal fabrication and maintenance environments. Crafted with aluminum oxide abrasive, it is rated for cutting metal and steel, including structural sections, bar stock, tubing, and non-ferrous materials. The wheel features a 1/8-inch thickness and an arbor (shank) size of 1 inch, with a grit rating of 24 and a hardness grade of R, suitable for moderate cutting performance on common ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Its 14" diameter provides substantial material removal in defined cut-off operations, while the relatively fine 24-grit clears material without excessive wheel loading under typical shop conditions. The wheel is packaged as individual pieces, with box quantities of 10, supporting multiple cuts from a single purchase. Understanding these specifications helps ensure compatibility with compatible stationary cut-off equipment and appropriate safety practices in metalworking tasks.

The combination of aluminum oxide abrasive and the specified dimensions matters for achieving predictable cut rates, surface finish, and wheel life given the material and thickness involved. Operators should verify that their cut-off machine accepts a 14" Type 1 wheel, uses a 1" arbor, and runs within the 4,400 RPM maximum indicated by the wheel’s rating. As with all cutoff wheels, proper mounting, guard clearance, and personal protective equipment are essential to maintain safe cutting operations and to manage wheel wear between replacements.
