Cgw 45005 Type 27 Cutoff Wheel 5x.045x7/8 ZA60-S-BF 25pk

Product Description

The CGW 45005 is a Type 27 Quickie Cut cutoff wheel designed for fast, clean cuts on metal in demanding trade applications. Built to a 5 x 0.045 x 7/8 inch specification with a ZA60-S-BF bond designation, this thin-kerf wheel delivers efficient stock removal with minimal heat buildup. The 0.045-inch thickness reduces material loss and drag, making it well-suited for precision cuts on pipe, angle iron, sheet metal, and structural steel. Each wheel is engineered for use on compatible angle grinders with a 7/8-inch arbor. Sold in a 25-wheel box, these cutoff wheels are a staple consumable for metalworkers, pipefitters, ironworkers, and general fabrication crews.

These Type 27 depressed-center cutoff wheels are used across a range of commercial and industrial applications including pipe fabrication, steel erection, HVAC ductwork cutting, and general metalworking. The flat-profile geometry of the Type 27 wheel improves clearance in tighter work areas compared to a Type 1 straight wheel. The ZA60-S-BF grain and bond specification indicates a zirconia alumina abrasive at 60 grit with a standard hardness and resinoid bond, balancing wheel life and cut speed on ferrous metals and stainless steel.

Key Features

• Type 27 depressed-center profile for improved clearance in confined cuts
• 0.045-inch thin kerf reduces heat and material loss per cut
• ZA60-S-BF specification: zirconia alumina abrasive, 60 grit, resinoid bond
• 7/8-inch arbor fits standard angle grinders
• 5-inch diameter compatible with common 4.5 to 5-inch angle grinders
• Sold in 25-wheel box for job-site and shop stocking efficiency

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement consumable for use with angle grinders accepting 5-inch Type 27 cutoff wheels with a 7/8-inch arbor bore.

Installation Notes

Cutoff wheels must be installed and operated by personnel familiar with angle grinder safety practices. Inspect each wheel for cracks or chips before mounting and never exceed the maximum RPM rating marked on the wheel. Ensure the grinder guard is properly installed before use. Operate the wheel in the plane of rotation only and avoid lateral pressure that could cause wheel breakage.
