The CGW 48026 fiber disc is a 5-inch diameter abrasive accessory designed for use on steel and similar metals where a balance of stock removal and cool cutting is needed. This 80-grit aluminum oxide disc is mounted on a heavy-duty vulcanized fiber backing, which is treated with an electrostatic coating to hold sharp, heat-treated grain and maintain abrasive integrity during use. The result is a disc that provides sustained cutting action with reduced loading, making it suitable for aggressive material removal in fabrication or finishing tasks while helping to minimize heat buildup on the workpiece.
Constructed to deliver predictable performance, the disc features aluminum oxide grain specifically selected for long life and effective grinding on metal surfaces. The combination of a 5-inch diameter and a 7/8-inch arbor/shaft size positions it for common manual and machine-mounted grinding tools used in facility maintenance and metalworking environments. The disc is packaged in a way that supports bulk purchase and inventory control, with 25 discs per case, aiding maintenance planning for ongoing projects.
When selecting this disc, consider compatibility with your grinder’s arbor size and RPM rating. The listed 12,200 RPM maximum aligns with typical high-speed applications for aluminum oxide fiber discs, but you should verify your equipment’s speed and mounting configuration before use. Regular inspection for wear, edge rounding, and backing integrity will help ensure consistent performance and safe operation over the disc’s service life.
