The CGW 49684 mini grinding wheel is designed for fast material removal on small or tight-fitting grinding jobs. This 2-5/16" diameter, 5/32" thick wheel features a 3/8" arbor and Type 27 profile, tailored for use on right-angle grinders or angle grinders where a recessed, depressed-center wheel is appropriate. The wheel uses aluminum oxide grain, a common choice for general-purpose grinding on non-ferrous metals and many ferrous materials, providing a balance of cut rate and lifespan for everyday shop tasks.
Constructed with an A80 grit specification and a T (hardness) rating, this wheel is intended for applications that require consistent cuts with a moderate aggressiveness. Its depressed center (Type 27) geometry helps maintain contact with the workpiece while allowing efficient material removal in curved surfaces or contours. The 20,000 RPM rating indicates suitability for high-speed grinding equipment, underscoring the need to match grinder speed to the wheel’s maximum RPM for safe operation.
Practical considerations include selecting appropriate safety gear and ensuring compatible tooling, given the wheel’s small diameter and specific arbor size. The product is packaged as a single wheel per item with a box quantity of 25, offering a convenient supply option for maintenance or production settings. Verify that the wheel’s size, grain, and hardness align with the workpiece and grinder before use to achieve the intended balance of cut rate and wheel life.
