CGW 45025 is a 6 inch diameter, 3/32 inch thick wheel with a 5/8-11 arbor, designed for cutting and notching applications. This Type 27 wheel uses white aluminum oxide grain and a 36 grit size to provide a relatively aggressive cut on ferrous and non-ferrous metals while maintaining a contiguously smooth edge suitable for notching tasks. The wheel is described as having a hard (S) grade, which supports stable performance under load and helps resist loading during material removal. The grain mix is formulated to be friable, meaning it can produce a clean cut with smaller chips and reduced heat buildup, aiding operator control and edge quality during use.
The wheel’s construction emphasizes contaminant-free performance, with claims that it contains very low levels of iron, sulfur, and chlorine. This characteristic can help minimize rust or corrosion on the workpiece after cutting, making it suitable for applications where surface cleanliness is important. The combination of white aluminum oxide grain and Type 27 profile is intended for use on angled grinders or right-angle tools, where the wheel can be mounted securely to perform both cutting and notching operations in a single work step. Practical use considerations include verifying compatibility with equipment RPM limits and ensuring the wheel is properly guarded and mounted per manufacturer recommendations.
In terms of compatibility and handling, this wheel is specified for a configuration that uses a 5/8-11 arbor and should be fitted to appropriate grinders designed for Type 27 wheels. Packaging details indicate a box quantity of 10 wheels per package, with each wheel sold individually. Regular inspection for cracks or wear is advised, and operators should follow standard wheel mounting and safety procedures to maintain performance and operator safety.
