CGW 35623 4-1/2" X 1/4" X 5/8"-11 A24-N Type 27 24-Grit Fast Cut Aluminum Oxide Grinding Wheel

The CGW 35623 grinding wheel is a 4-1/2 inch diameter, 1/4 inch thick wheel with a 5/8-11 thread arbor, designed for fast cutting and stock removal on aluminum oxide systems. Built as a Type 27 depressed-center wheel, it is intended for use on angle grinders where grinding to shape and removing material from metal surfaces is required. The wheel’s A24-N configuration indicates a relatively soft bond with aluminum oxide grain, chosen to promote aggressive material removal while maintaining wheel integrity under high-speed operation.

This wheel uses aluminum oxide grain with a soft N-grade bond to enable rapid stock removal, which is reflected in its reported balance between throughput and wheel wear. The 24-grit size supports coarse material removal, making it suitable for contouring or blending tasks on metals with minimal surface finish requirements. As with all high-speed grinding wheels, users should ensure compatibility with their grinder’s RPM rating and follow standard safety practices, including proper wheel mounting and PPE.

Appropriate mounting and compatibility considerations include verifying that the tool’s arbor matches the 5/8-11 threaded bore and that the operation stays within the wheel’s RPM rating of 13,300. The packaging records indicate a per-unit packaging arrangement with 10 wheels per box, which is useful for maintaining production continuity on jobs requiring multiple wheels. Regular inspection for wear and cracks and adherence to manufacturer guidelines will help ensure predictable performance and safe operation.
