CGW 35649 is a 9-inch Type 27 grinding wheel designed for general surface grinding and material removal on metal workpieces. It features a 1/8-inch wheel thickness and a 5/8-11 arbor, making it compatible with standard right-angle grinders and compatible mounting hardware. The wheel uses aluminum oxide grain, a common choice for steel and other ferrous alloys, and is bonded with an R-grade formulation intended to balance wheel life with effective stock removal. The 24-grit size provides a coarse surface finish suitable for rapid material removal and deburring applications, while Type 27 shapes the wheel to perform with a depressed center configuration suitable for flat surfaces and certain edge grinding tasks.
Key construction details include the combination of a high-quality aluminum oxide grain and an R-grade bond, which together influence wheel life, stock removal rate, and the ability to withstand typical grinding temperatures during heavy-duty operation. The wheel is rated for up to 6,600 RPM, which aligns with common power tools in industrial and maintenance settings and helps ensure compatible performance with compatible grinders when operated within the specified speed range.
Practical considerations for use include ensuring proper mounting to the grinder with a 5/8-11 arbor and matching the wheel diameter and thickness to the tool and the workpiece geometry. The 9-inch diameter and Type 27 depressed-center profile are suitable for flat and contoured surfaces where material removal and surface finishing are needed. Packaging is specified as individual units with units sold in multi-pack quantities, depending on the supplier, which can impact project planning and part availability.
This wheel is appropriate for facility maintenance tasks requiring efficient material removal on metal surfaces and is compatible with standard 9-inch grind centers that accept a 5/8-11 arbor and operate within the wheel’s RPM rating. Always verify grinder compatibility, wheel dimensions, and safety requirements before use to ensure proper performance and adherence to maintenance and replacement schedules.
