CGW 45047 is a 9-inch Type 27 grinding wheel designed for cutting and rapid material removal on ferrous metals. The wheel features a 60-grit zirconia and aluminum oxide blend, selected to balance cutting speed with wheel life. Its 1/16-inch thickness and 7/8-inch arbor size place it within common configurations for heavy-duty cutoff and shaping tasks on steel and stainless steel surfaces. The Type 27 profile is optimized for grinding on curved surfaces and works best when used with compatible right-angled grinders operating at the appropriate RPM.
The zirconia-based composition contributes to fast cutting action and improved durability relative to traditional aluminum oxide blends, which can help reduce cycle times in metal fabrication and maintenance tasks. Proper use requires matching the wheel to a compatible grinding machine and ensuring RPM limits do not exceed the wheel’s rated 6,600 RPM. Surface finishing results will depend on workpiece material, abrasive blend, and feed rate; users should follow standard safety and wheel dressing practices to maintain performance.
Packaging details indicate the wheel is sold as an individual item, with a box quantity of 25, suitable for batch purchases or stocking at a maintenance shop. As with all bonded abrasive products, verify that the wheel size, thickness, and arbor match the spindle and guard specifications on your equipment before mounting, and inspect the wheel for damage prior to use.
