CGW 45219 4-1/2" X .094" X 5/8"-11 Type 27 36-Grit Aluminum Oxide 3-IN-1 Cut/Grind/Finish Wheel

The CGW 45219 is a 4-1/2 inch diameter, 0.094 inch thick, 5/8-11 arbor Type 27 aluminum oxide wheel designed for 3-in-1 cut, grind, and finish applications. This wheel consolidates material removal, shaping, and surface finishing into a single tool, which can reduce setup changes and downtime on appropriate workpieces. The 36-grit aluminum oxide abrasive is chosen for a balance between material removal and a smoother finish on metals and certain alloys, while the Type 27 profile supports grinding at a more comfortable angle against curved surfaces and edges.

Constructed with three layers of fiberglass net reinforcement, the wheel emphasizes added strength and flexibility under typical grinding loads. The specification notes provide practical parameters: 4-1/2 inch diameter with a 5/8-11 arbor and a 3/32 inch thickness, rated for up to 13,300 RPM, making it suitable for compatible manual or machine-driven bench and angle grinders designed to accept Type 27 wheels. The abrasive is designed to minimize rust and corrosion from incidental contaminants, contributing to longer wheel life in mixed-work environments where exposure to moisture or salts might occur.

When selecting this wheel, ensure the mounting hardware and spindle speed match the tool’s capabilities and the wheel’s Type 27 face orientation for proper contact with the work surface. The product is packaged as individual items within a 10-pack box, offering moderate convenience for facilities that perform recurring grinding tasks with similar wheel requirements. This wheel is best suited to tasks where a combination of cutting, grinding, and finishing is advantageous, provided the workpiece geometry and material are compatible with 36-grit aluminum oxide and Type 27 configurations.
