CGW 36110 is a 5 inch diameter, 1/4 inch thick, 5/8-11 arbor, Type 27 grinding wheel designed for non-ferrous metal grinding, particularly aluminum, with a 30-grit calcium stearate bonded formulation. The wheel uses premium aluminum oxide grain selected for a non-loading cutting action, paired with a soft N-grade bond that supports weld removal while minimizing loading and glazing during material removal. This combination aims to provide efficient material removal on aluminum, copper, zinc, and other non-ferrous alloys, aligning the wheel’s structure with the softer, non-ferrous workpieces. The Type 27 profile indicates a depressed center, suitable for grinding at certain angles and positions typically used in fabrication and maintenance settings.
The wheel’s specific geometry and grit size influence both material removal rate and surface finish, with the 30-grit / soft bond pairing generally favoring aggressive cutting without excessive friction for non-ferrous metals. The aluminum oxide grain and calcium stearate binder contribute to a lower tendency for loading on aluminum surfaces, helping maintain cutting action over multiple passes. The rated operating speed of 12,200 RPM should be matched to compatible tools and guards to ensure safe operation in line with standard workshop practices.
This product is packaged as a single wheel with a box quantity of 10 per case, and uses a 5/8-11 inch arbor to fit compatible angle grinders and right-angle grinders that accept Type 27 depressed-center wheels. For best results, observe proper mounting procedures, verify grinder speed compatibility, and ensure appropriate wheel guards and personal protective equipment are used during grinding operations. The information provided reflects the manufacturer’s specified dimensions, grain type, bond hardness, and compatibility notes as the basis for selection and use.
