CGW 42514 5" X 5/8"-11 Type 27 60-Grit Z3 Zirconia Flap Disc

The CGW 42514 5" x 5/8-11 Type 27 Zirconia Flap Disc is designed for aggressive material removal on steel with a focus on efficiency and consistent finish. This 60-grit flap disc uses premium zirconia alumina grain on a poly/cotton backing. The Zirconia concentration supports high stock removal while the poly/cotton blend provides durability and a workable finish during extended grinding. An active grinding aid is included to help maintain cooler cutting action under light pressure, which can contribute to reduced heat buildup and prolonged disc life under demanding conditions.

Constructed as a Type 27 wheel, this disc is intended for grinding at angles that optimize material removal on flat or contoured surfaces. The combination of grain type, backing, and disc geometry is chosen to balance aggressive material removal with a reasonable finish, making it suitable for heavy-duty applications where faster stock removal is a priority. The design considerations aim to keep the wheel stable during use and to promote efficient debris expulsion, which can help maintain grinding efficiency over the disc’s life.

Compatibility details indicate a 5" diameter with a 5/8"-11 arbor, a common size for profiling, deburring, and shaping tasks on mild to moderate steel workpieces. The product ships in boxed quantities of 10 per package, enabling convenient stocking and project planning for job sites or maintenance bays. When selecting abrasive tools, verify the arbor size and Type 27 conditioning to ensure proper fit and performance with your grinder, and follow standard safe operating procedures to manage heat buildup and disc wear during aggressive use.
