CGW 35674 4-1/2" X 1/4" X 5/8"-11 WA24-R Type 27 24-Grit White Aluminum Oxide Grinding Wheel

CGW 35674 is a Standard Type 27, 24-grit grinding wheel designed for speed and material removal on stainless steel and ferrous metals. With a 4-1/2 inch diameter, 1/4 inch thickness, and 5/8-11 arbor, this wheel is configured for common right-angle grinders used in facility maintenance tasks. The WA24-R designation identifies a reinforced form with a 24-grit white aluminum oxide abrasive, chosen for its balance of cutting efficiency and wheel hardness suitable for demanding metalworking operations.

The wheel’s contaminant-free construction, containing less than 0.01% iron, sulfur, or chlorine, helps minimize rust and corrosion on processed parts. This attribute is particularly valuable when preparing stainless steel surfaces or other corrosion-sensitive metals, where residual contaminants could impact finish quality or downstream coating adhesion. The material composition and grit sizing are aligned to deliver a fast-cutting action while maintaining control during grinding and deburring tasks.

Practically, this wheel is compatible with standard 4-1/2 inch angle grinders that accept 5/8-11 arbor mounting. It is supplied in a packaging configuration of 10 per box, with each wheel intended for individual use in routine maintenance, fabrication, or repair workflows. When selecting this wheel, ensure the grinder’s RPM rating is compatible with the wheel’s maximum 13,300 RPM specification to avoid performance compromise or safety concerns.
