The CGW 48112 is a 5-inch diameter fiber disc designed for high-performance material removal and blending on metal surfaces. Built with a zirconia-aluminum oxide blend, this disc delivers aggressive cutting action with notable heat resistance, making it suitable for smoothing welds on steel and stainless steel while preserving integrity of the base metal in high-temperature grinding conditions.
The zirconia grain provides a distinctive fracturing characteristic that maintains a consistent grinding action throughout the disc’s life, helping workers achieve steady material removal with fewer changes in performance. This disc is formulated for blending and finishing tasks, balancing effective cut rate with a controlled finish, which can be advantageous when refining weld seams or preparing surfaces for subsequent processing.
Compatibility and use details: the disc is specified as 5 inches in diameter with a 7/8-inch arbor/shank size, designed for compatible angle grinders and rotary tools that accept 5" discs with the stated arbor. It is packaged in a box containing 25 discs and is intended for high-temperature applications and metal finishing tasks, where a durable zirconia blend can provide lasting performance under repetitive use. When selecting a disc for welding prep or metal finishing, verify grinder compatibility, RPM limits, and personal protective equipment requirements to ensure safe operation.
