CGW 45013 is a 7-inch Type 1 cutting wheel designed for heavy-duty cutting of steel and stainless steel. This wheel features a 60-grit zirconia abrasive blend, combined with aluminum oxide, to deliver faster material removal and extended wheel life compared with standard aluminum oxide products. The Type 1 profile, 1/16-inch thickness, and 7/8-inch arbor size are standard for most right-angle grinders, enabling efficient, stable cutting in metalworking and maintenance tasks. The 7-inch diameter and thin profile are intended to maximize material removal while maintaining control and cut accuracy on flat or constructed metal surfaces.
Key construction details include a zirconia-aluminum oxide mix that is optimized for aggressive cutting, helping operators achieve productive cuts in carbon steel and stainless steel applications. The wheel is rated for high RPM operation, up to 8500 RPM, which should be matched to appropriate grinding equipment and safety practices. The product is offered in a packaging configuration of individual units, with a boxed quantity of 25, supporting routine usage in shops and maintenance facilities where multiple cuts are common.
This wheel should be selected when faster cutting and longer wear are priorities for sheet metal and fabrication tasks, with attention to the correct mounting flange, guard clearance, and wheel speed. As with all grinding wheels, verify compatibility with your grinder’s RPM rating and the workpiece material before use. The data indicates this is a Type 1 wheel with a 60 grit zirconia blend, a 7/8-inch arbor, and a 7-inch diameter, making it suitable for universal metal-cutting duties in standard maintenance environments.
