Dewalt DW8705 Metal Thin Cut-off Wheel A36T Type 1

Product Description

The DEWALT DW8705 is a bonded abrasive thin cut-off wheel designed for cutting metal in demanding trade applications. Measuring 3 inches in diameter by 1/16 inches thick with a 3/8 inch arbor hole, this Type 1 flat wheel is built for use with small angle grinders and rotary cut-off tools. The A36T abrasive grain designation indicates a 36-grit aluminum oxide bond, suited for fast, clean cuts through ferrous metals including mild steel, pipe, conduit, and structural stock. Electricians, plumbers, HVAC techs, and general contractors reach for wheels like this when cutting threaded rod, pipe, or sheet metal in the field.

This wheel fits compact rotary cut-off tools that accept a 3/8 inch arbor. The 3-inch diameter and 1/16-inch thickness make it well suited for confined-space cuts and detail work where a larger wheel is impractical. Typical applications include cutting conduit, small-diameter pipe, bolts, strut channel, and metal framing components. It is sold in quantity lots with a minimum order of 50 wheels per unit of measure, making it a practical stock item for shop bins or service van supply.

Key Features

• A36T aluminum oxide abrasive grain for fast cutting action on ferrous metals
• Type 1 flat wheel profile for straight, controlled cut-off work
• 3-inch diameter keeps the wheel maneuverable in tight spaces
• 1/16-inch thickness reduces kerf width and minimizes material waste
• 3/8-inch arbor hole fits standard compact rotary cut-off tools

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style bonded abrasive replacement wheel for compact rotary cut-off tools and small angle grinders that accept a 3/8 inch arbor and a 3-inch diameter Type 1 wheel.

Installation Notes

Wheel mounting and replacement should be performed by the tool operator following the tool manufacturer's guard and flange requirements. Inspect the wheel for cracks or chips before each use and never operate a damaged wheel. Always wear appropriate eye protection and ensure the tool RPM rating meets or exceeds the wheel's maximum rated speed. Follow applicable OSHA abrasive wheel safety standards during mounting and operation.
