CGW 49004 is a 5-inch diameter, 2-inch wide, 5/8-11 threaded aluminum oxide resin cup wheel designed for Type 11 grinding applications. This wheel features a 16-grit aluminum oxide abrasive designed for aggressive material removal on tough steel surfaces, contributing to efficient stock removal with a cup wheel geometry that maintains a stable contact area. The resin-bonded construction provides a balance of rigidity and controlled breakage, helping to manage heat and grinding forces during use.
The wheel is sized for compatible 5/8-11 arbor machines and operates at up to 7,260 RPM, aligning with standard high-speed grinding equipment. The Type 11 cup shape is suitable for contouring and surface finessing on flat or curved workpieces, particularly where access is limited and material needs to be ground flush with the surrounding geometry. Its 16-grit classification and aluminum oxide composition are selected for routine grinding tasks on metals, including castings and rough surfaces, while the resin bond aids in chip control and wheel life under demanding conditions.
When selecting this wheel, consider the workpiece material and the desired aggressiveness of removal, as well as the machine’s RPM rating to ensure safe operation. Proper mounting to a compatible 5/8-11 arbor and adherence to wheel manufacturer guidelines are essential for performance and safety. This wheel is packaged as a single unit per package, suitable for individual use or to fulfill a maintenance task on metal fabrication, repair, or finishing operations.
