CGW 35665 4-1/2" X 1/8" X 5/8"-11 ZA24-T Type 27 24-Grit Zirconia Pipeline Wheel

The CGW 35665 4-1/2" x 1/8" x 5/8"-11 ZA24-T Type 27 24-Grit Zirconia Pipeline Wheel is designed for high-efficiency grinding on steel, cast iron, and stainless steel. This wheel uses premium zirconia grain, selected for its self-sharpening properties and consistent material removal, which helps extend wheel life while maintaining an effective cut. Its Type 27 profile is suited for work at angles and on irregular surfaces, making it a versatile option for pipeline and fabrication tasks where access can be limited.

The ZA24-T designation identifies a hardened wheel with zirconia abrasive technology and a 24-grit size, balanced for aggressive stock removal with improved heat resistance. The wheel features a 4-1/2 inch diameter, a 1/8 inch thickness, and a 5/8-11 inch arbor—the standard mounting interface for many angle grinders. Operating at up to 13,300 RPM, this wheel is intended for higher-speed grinding applications where material removal rate and cycle time are critical factors.

Practical use considerations include selecting this wheel for metalworking tasks that involve exposed edges or pipe fittings, where a Type 27 wheel’s depressed center can reach into contours. The packaging is reported as “Each” with a box quantity of 10, which affects stocking and replacement planning. Maintain appropriate grinding technique to manage heat and to preserve edge integrity, and confirm compatibility with your grinder’s arbor and RPM rating before use.
