The CGW 45220 wheel is a 5 inch, 7/8 inch arbor Type 27 disc engineered for combined cut, grind, and finish tasks in a single pass. This 36-grit aluminum oxide wheel is designed to deliver aggressive material removal while leaving a finished surface, reducing the need for multiple wheel changes during fabrication or maintenance work. The wheel uses three layers of fiberglass net reinforcement to provide enhanced strength and flexibility, contributing to improved performance and durability during high-demand grinding operations.
Key construction and performance details include its Type 27 profile, which is suitable for off-hand or machine-mounted angles that promote comfortable grinding angles and material contact. The wheel is manufactured with a contaminant-free formulation, explicitly engineered to minimize iron, sulfur, and chlorine content to help reduce rust and corrosion on certain metals, supporting cleaner operation in mixed-material applications. With a rated RPM of 12,200, it is important to match the wheel to compatible grinders and to observe speed ratings to maintain performance and safety.
This wheel is packaged as a single unit, with a box quantity of 25, making it suitable for maintenance shops or job sites that require a steady supply of 5 inch, 7/8 inch arbor Type 27 discs. When selecting this wheel, consider the workpiece material and surface finish goals, as the 36-grit aluminum oxide composition is optimized for quick material removal with a subsequent finish, rather than fine finishing alone. Regular inspection for wheel wear and proper mounting alignment helps ensure consistent results and prolongs wheel life.
