Cgw 54293 Ceramic Cutting Wheel 4-1/2 Inch T27 25/box

Product Description

The CGW 54293 is a Type 27 ceramic grain cut-off wheel engineered for fast, aggressive cutting on steel and stainless steel. Measuring 4-1/2 x 0.45 x 7/8 inches, it uses a high-performance sharp ceramic abrasive grain paired with an advanced bonding system designed to deliver long wheel life without sacrificing cut speed. Sold in boxes of 25, this wheel is used by metal fabricators, pipefitters, ironworkers, and maintenance technicians who run high-power angle grinders and need a wheel that keeps up with production demands.

The 54293 is suited for cutting stainless steel and carbon steel in fabrication shops, structural steel work, and field maintenance applications. The T27 depressed-center profile provides clearance in confined cuts and is compatible with standard 4-1/2 inch angle grinders. The thin 0.45-inch kerf reduces material loss and heat buildup at the cut zone. Fewer wheel changes per shift translate directly to lower labor costs on high-volume cutting tasks.

Key Features

• High-performance ceramic abrasive grain for fast, sharp cutting on steel and stainless steel
• Advanced bonding system engineered for long wheel life and sustained cut rate
• Thin 0.45-inch kerf minimizes heat input and material waste
• Type 27 depressed-center profile fits standard 4-1/2 inch angle grinders
• 7/8-inch arbor bore for direct mounting on common grinder spindles
• Sold 25 wheels per box for shop and fleet stocking

Compatibility

Designed for use on steel and stainless steel. Fits standard 4-1/2 inch angle grinders with a 7/8-inch arbor. Maximum performance is achieved on high-power machines appropriate for Type 27 cut-off wheels.

Installation Notes

Mounting and use of abrasive cut-off wheels should follow ANSI B7.1 and the grinder manufacturer guidelines. Always inspect the wheel for cracks or chips before mounting and never exceed the maximum RPM marked on the wheel. Wear appropriate face and eye protection, and ensure the guard is properly installed on the grinder before operation. Use the correct arbor flange and tighten only to manufacturer specification to avoid wheel distortion.
