The CGW 49043 is a 3 inch by 3 inch by 5/8 inch shank, Type 18R A16R resin-bonded grinding plug designed for hard-to-reach metal finishing. This aluminum oxide grade is intended for high-precision grinding and finishing tasks in tight spaces, providing a robust option for surface material removal and refinement where access is restricted by geometry.
Constructed as a resin-bonded plug with an aluminum oxide grain, it is optimized for performance on metal substrates. The 16-grit size offers controlled material removal while the Type 18R configuration supports stable, consistent grinding actions in confined areas. With a 5/8-11 arbor/shank, this plug is compatible with standard mounting settings used on right-angle grinders and similar tools, enabling straightforward integration into established workflows. The rated RPM of 13,200 reflects the balance between grit aggressiveness and wheel integrity for metal grinding tasks.
Typical use scenarios include finishing operations on components where flat-face discs cannot reach, such as internal features, shoulders, or recessed surfaces. Practical considerations include ensuring proper tool speed and torque to maximize efficiency while maintaining control to avoid gouging. Each package contains 10 units, allowing multiple parts or viscous production runs to be managed without repeated reordering.
