Gator 9685 Type 1 Metal Cut-off Wheel 14x3/32x1 in

Product Description

The GATOR 9685 is an industrial-grade Type 1 cut-off wheel designed for cutting and chopping metal in demanding trade applications. Built to 14 inches in diameter with a 3/32-inch thickness and a 1-inch arbor bore, this wheel delivers controlled, efficient cuts on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The fiberglass-reinforced construction adds structural integrity, helping the wheel resist shattering under load. It is commonly used by ironworkers, pipefitters, electricians, and general contractors who need consistent performance from angle grinders and chop saws during fabrication or rough-in work.

This cut-off wheel is suited for residential and commercial jobsite use where metal pipe, angle iron, rebar, conduit, and structural steel require quick, clean cuts. The Type 1 flat profile is the standard configuration for right-angle grinders and dedicated cut-off machines. At 14 inches, this wheel fits larger stationary chop saws and heavy-duty angle grinders commonly found in fabrication shops and commercial job sites.

Key Features

• Type 1 flat profile for use with angle grinders and chop saws
• 14-inch diameter for compatibility with heavy-duty cut-off machines
• 3/32-inch thickness supports fast, clean cuts with minimal material loss
• 1-inch arbor bore fits standard arbor sizes on common cut-off equipment
• Fiberglass-reinforced construction for added strength and resistance to fracture
• Industrial quality rated for cutting and chopping applications on metal

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard consumable for heavy-duty angle grinders and stationary chop saws accepting 14-inch Type 1 cut-off wheels with a 1-inch arbor bore.

Installation Notes

Cut-off wheels must be installed and operated by personnel familiar with angle grinder and chop saw safety practices. Always inspect the wheel for cracks or chips before mounting and ensure the equipment's rated RPM meets or exceeds the wheel's maximum RPM rating. Wear appropriate PPE including a face shield, gloves, and hearing protection during operation. Follow ANSI B7.1 and applicable OSHA guidelines for abrasive wheel machinery.
