CGW 35629 5" X 1/4" X 5/8"-11 A24-N Type 27 24-Grit Fast Cut Aluminum Oxide Grinding Wheel

The CGW 35629 grinding wheel is a fast-cut, general-purpose wheel designed for aluminum oxide applications. With a 5-inch diameter, 1/4-inch thickness, and a 5/8-11 arbor, this Type 27 wheel is engineered for offhand grinding and surface blending on flat or slightly concave surfaces. The A24-N construction combines aluminum oxide grain with a soft N-grade bond to promote aggressive stock removal while maintaining wheel integrity during use. The 24-grit size provides a balance between material removal rate and surface finish, making it suitable for tasks that require rapid material removal on metal components and fabrication work without sacrificing wheel life.

In practice, this wheel is chosen when you need a rapid material removal capability on mild to moderate stock and edge work, such as deburring, blending edges, and prepare weld beads for finishing. The combination of a 5/8-11 mounting size and Type 27 profile supports applications where the wheel is used on bench grinders or right-angle grinders with appropriate guards and safety measures. The specification notes help ensure compatibility with compatible grinders and mounting hardware, and the wheel is packaged individually or in box quantities depending on the supplier configuration, facilitating inventory management for maintenance and fabrication operations.

When selecting this wheel, verify the grinder’s RPM rating and ensure it matches or is suitable for the wheel’s 12,200 RPM maximum to avoid overspeed risks. While the provided data confirms the wheel’s abrasive type, grit, and dimensions, always follow manufacturer and machine safety guidelines for mounting, dressing, and usage to ensure optimal performance and operator safety.
