The CGW 49629 is a 5 inch diameter, 7/8 inch arbor Type 29 abrasive disc designed for semi-flex grinding applications. This disc blends a red fiber backing with 36-grit aluminum oxide grain to support efficient material removal on a range of substrates. The Type 29 profile provides a right-angle grinding surface suitable for aggressive work while maintaining control on curved or contoured parts. The disc is intended for use with standard rotary tools and grinders that accept 5" discs with a 7/8" arbor, and it is packaged as a single unit with a box quantity aligned to common shop stocking needs.
Construction-wise, the product leverages aluminum oxide grain known for good versatility across metals and some non-ferrous materials, paired with a semi-flex backing to balance conformability with durability. This combination supports tasks like deburring, deflashing, and removing coatings or contouring on various metal surfaces, as well as certain non-ferrous work where a robust, consistent cut is required. The 36-grit size indicates a coarse finish path, suitable for rapid material removal rather than fine surface finishing. Practical use considerations include checking compatibility with your grinder’s RPM rating and ensuring proper disc mounting to prevent misalignment during operation.
In terms of sizing and packaging, this item is specified as 5" diameter, 7/8" arbor/shank, Type 29, with 36 grit, and an RPM rating of 12,200. This helps determine suitability for your equipment and the desired material removal rate. For inventory planning, note the box quantity is 25 per package, which can streamline stocking and restocking decisions in facility-maintenance or MRO environments.
