CGW 70105 12" X 1/8" X 1" Type 1 24-Grit Aluminum Oxide Cutting Wheel

CGW 70105 is a Type 1 cutting wheel designed for stationary saws, offering a 12-inch diameter, 1/8-inch thickness, and 1-inch arbor to accommodate common metal-cutting setups. The wheel features a 24-grit aluminum oxide abrasive, suitable for cutting structural steel, bar stock, tubing, and some non-ferrous metals. As an aluminum oxide wheel, it is intended for general-purpose metal cutting and is typically used in shop environments where robust, repeatable cuts are required on ferrous materials.

Constructed for higher-speed cutting, the wheel is rated for up to 4,400 RPM, which aligns with standard performance expectations for 12-inch cut-off wheels used in routine fabrication and maintenance tasks. The combination of wheel diameter, thickness, and grit size impacts cut release, heat generation, and the aggressiveness of material removal, with 24 grit providing a balance between material removal rate and control. Handling and mounting should follow arbor specification and proper safety practices to ensure compatibility with compatible stationary saws.

This wheel is packaged as a single item with a box quantity of 10, making it suitable for individual shop use or bulk stocking. When selecting replacement wheels, confirm that the machine’s arbor size and RPM ratings match the wheel’s 1-inch arbor and 4,400 RPM limit, and rely on established cutoff wheel guidelines for the materials being cut. For optimal performance, use with appropriate shielding, wheel guards, and personal protective equipment as dictated by your facility’s safety program.
