Cgw 35516 Type 1 Cutoff Wheel 5x0.045x7/8 ZA36-T-BF 25pk

Product Description

The CGW 35516 is a Type 1 flat cutoff wheel engineered for fast, clean cuts on metal and ferrous materials. Built to the ZA36-T-BF specification, this wheel measures 5 inches in diameter, 0.045 inches thick, and fits a 7/8-inch arbor. The A36-grit zirconia alumina abrasive grain delivers aggressive stock removal with minimal burr, making it well suited for production cutting in fabrication and maintenance environments. Each wheel is bonded with a resin-fiber matrix and rated for high-RPM angle grinders. The box contains 25 wheels, supporting job-site continuity without frequent restocking. Licensed tradespeople and fabricators working with structural steel, pipe, and sheet metal rely on this format for its thin kerf and reduced heat buildup at the cut zone.

The CGW 35516 is used in metal fabrication shops, mechanical and pipefitting applications, and general industrial maintenance. The 5-inch diameter and 7/8-inch arbor fit the majority of standard angle grinders used in these trades. The 0.045-inch thickness keeps the kerf narrow, which reduces material loss and heat generation on thinner-gauge stock. These wheels are sold in a 25-count box, making them practical for shops and service contractors who cut frequently and need a reliable supply on hand.

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 5-inch angle grinders equipped with a 7/8-inch arbor, suitable for cutting ferrous metals including structural steel, pipe, and sheet stock.

Installation Notes

Installation and wheel changes must be performed by a qualified operator with the grinder unplugged or the power source locked out and tagged out per applicable safety procedures. Inspect each wheel for cracks or damage before mounting and never use a wheel that shows any defect. Mount the wheel securely and ensure the guard is in place before starting the tool. Operate within the maximum RPM rating marked on the wheel and never use a cutoff wheel for side grinding.
