3M 7100313204 Cut and Grind Wheel 5 Inch 36 Grit

Product Description

The 3M 7100313204 is a 5-inch Cubitrona 3 Cut and Grind Wheel built for trade professionals who need one wheel that handles both cutting and grinding. It uses 3M Precision Shaped Ceramic Grain, a re-engineered abrasive with sharp, angular structures that continuously fracture to expose fresh cutting edges. The result is a wheel that runs cooler, wears evenly, and maintains consistent stock removal throughout its service life. At 1/8 inch thick and rated at 36-plus grit, it is engineered for aggressive material removal on stainless steel and mild steel.

This wheel is suited for fabrication shops, maintenance crews, and field technicians working on stainless steel and mild steel in both residential and commercial settings. Its dual-function design eliminates the need to swap wheels between cutting and grinding tasks, making it practical for cutting pipe, grinding welds, and gouging in tight or time-sensitive work. The rigid, reinforced, resin-bonded construction holds up under sustained side-load and plunge cuts.

Key Features

• Dual-function design works as both a cut-off wheel and a grinding wheel on stainless and mild steel
• Precision Shaped Ceramic Grain continuously fractures to maintain sharp cutting edges and cool running temperatures
• 1/8 inch thickness provides rigidity for grinding and enough flex tolerance for controlled cut-off work
• Reformulated wheel composition delivers improved balance and smoother action for better finish quality
• Rigid, reinforced, resin-bonded construction withstands sustained lateral and plunge-cut loading
• 36-plus grit rating suited for aggressive stock removal and weld prep on ferrous substrates

Compatibility

Designed for use on stainless steel and mild steel substrates with 5-inch angle grinders and cut-off tools that accept Type 27 or compatible depressed-center wheels.

Installation Notes

Mount and operate this wheel using a properly guarded 5-inch angle grinder rated for the wheel speed. Always power down and disconnect or de-energize the tool before mounting or changing wheels. Inspect the wheel for cracks or damage before each use and do not use a damaged wheel. Follow ANSI B7.1 and applicable OSHA standards for abrasive wheel mounting and safe use.
