CGW 36184 4" x 1/16" x 3/8" Type 1 36-Grit Ceramic Cutting Wheel

CGW 36184 is a 4-inch diameter, 1/16-inch thick, 3/8-inch arbor ceramic cutting wheel designed for high-speed die grinder applications. The wheel uses premium ceramic grain to enable rapid material removal with a clean cut, which helps minimize workpiece loss during the cutting process. Its Type 1 profile is suitable for general purpose straight cutting on ferrous and non-ferrous materials where a precise, flat cut is required at elevated RPM.

Construction-wise, the wheel employs ceramic abrasive grain selected for fast cutting efficiency and extended life relative to conventional aluminum oxide tools. The 36-grit size provides a balance between aggressiveness and finish quality, making it appropriate for tasks that demand both speed and durability. The wheel is specified for operation up to 22,000 RPM, which should be matched to compatible die grinders and spindle speeds to avoid overspeed conditions and ensure safe operation. Package details indicate a box of 50 pieces per order, suitable for batch production or stocking multiple machines.

This type of wheel is commonly used in metal fabrication, maintenance, and light fabrication tasks where through-spindle noise, heat generation, and wheel wear are considerations. When selecting this wheel, verify that your die grinder accepts a 3/8-inch arbor and that the intended cut aligns with the Type 1 profile. Proper guard placement and PPE for grinding operations should be observed, and wheel replacement should follow the manufacturer’s safety recommendations to maintain performance and avoid wheel breakage.
