The CGW 37531 5" X 1/4" X 5/8"-11 WA24-R Type 27 24-Grit White Aluminum Oxide Grinding Wheel is designed for fast cutting and grinding on stainless steel and ferrous metals. Its WA24-R formulation emphasizes a contaminant-free composition intended to minimize iron, sulfur, and chlorine content, which helps reduce rust and corrosion risks in finishing operations.
Constructed with white aluminum oxide grain, this wheel presents a Type 27 profile suitable for off-hand and angle-grind applications. The 24-grit size provides a balance between material removal and surface finish, while the S hardness designation supports robust performance under typical grinding loads. A 5/8-11 arbor and overall dimensions of 5 inches diameter and 1/4 inch thickness define its compatibility with a broad range of standard grinding equipment and fixtures. The wheel is rated to operate at up to 12,200 RPM, a specification that should be matched to the appropriate grinder and guarding requirements to ensure safe use.
Practical use cases include fast material removal on ferrous metals and stainless steel when a contaminant-free wheel is advantageous for subsequent finishing steps. When selecting this wheel, verify compatibility with your grinder’s arbor size and speed, and ensure correct flange spacing and safety guards are employed. The package notes indicate a unit quantity of “Each” with an overall box quantity of 10, making it straightforward to stock for maintenance tasks that require frequent wheel replacements in facility maintenance and fabrication environments.
