3M 7010308300 Type 27 Guard 4 Inch Grinder Part

Product Description

The 3M 7010308300 is a Type 27 guard measuring 4 inches, designed as a replacement part for 3M right angle grinders and sanders. This guard mounts over the abrasive wheel to provide a physical barrier between the rotating disc and the operator, directing debris away from the user during grinding and cutting operations. It is a direct OEM-style replacement component intended to restore equipment to factory specification. Trade professionals replace worn or damaged guards as part of routine tool maintenance or after inspection failures. Sold individually, this part fits into standard tool servicing workflows performed by fabricators, ironworkers, and general contractors.

This guard is applicable to 3M right angle grinder and sander models where a 4-inch Type 27 guard is specified in the tool's parts list and schematic. Type 27 guards are characterized by their depressed-center profile, which is matched to Type 27 abrasive wheels used in surface grinding and blending applications. Consult the owner's manual parts list and tool schematic for the specific grinder model to confirm fitment before installation.

• 4-inch diameter Type 27 guard profile matched to depressed-center abrasive wheel geometry

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Guard replacement on angle grinders should be performed by a qualified technician with the tool fully disconnected from its power source. Follow the tool manufacturer's owner's manual for the correct removal and installation procedure specific to the grinder model. Ensure the guard is fully seated and all fasteners are secure before returning the tool to service. OSHA 29 CFR 1910.243 requires that guards be in place during grinder operation.
