It measures 3 inches in diameter, 1\/16 inches thick, with a 3\/8 inches arbor hole. The 46-grit aluminum oxide abrasive delivers fast, aggressive cuts through steel stock, pipe, rod, and sheet. The reinforced fiberglass construction helps the wheel resist lateral stress during cuts. A maximum operating speed of 25,450 RPM makes it compatible with compact pneumatic and electric rotary tools common in fabrication, plumbing, and HVAC field work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis cut-off wheel is suited for field and shop use where a small-diameter wheel is needed for tight-access cuts. Typical applications include cutting steel pipe, threaded rod, angle iron, and sheet metal in residential and light commercial settings. HVAC technicians, plumbers, and pipefitters reach for this wheel when working in confined mechanical spaces where a full-size grinder cannot fit. The thin 1\/16 inches kerf minimizes material loss and reduces heat buildup during the cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eType 1 flat wheel profile for straight, plunge, and chop cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e46-grit aluminum oxide abrasive for aggressive steel removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReinforced fiberglass construction resists lateral stress and breakage\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/16 inches thin kerf reduces heat and material loss\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e25,450 max RPM rating suits compact angle grinders and die grinders\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8 inches arbor hole fits standard small grinder spindles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use on steel applications with small angle grinders and die grinders that accept a 3\/8 inches arbor and operate at or below 25,450 RPM.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMount and remove cut-off wheels only with the grinder unplugged or the air supply disconnected. Verify the tool spindle speed does not exceed the 25,450 RPM rating marked on the wheel before operation. Always install the correct guard for the wheel diameter in use, as required by OSHA 29 CFR 1926.303 and tool manufacturer guidelines. Wear face protection rated for abrasive wheel use and never apply side pressure to a Type 1 cut-off wheel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Type 1 (01\/41)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArbor Hole Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbrasive Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 46\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: T\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReinforced\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum RPM\u003c\/strong\u003e: 25,450\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Color\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification\u003c\/strong\u003e: A46T\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: IMPORT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: BD3031\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"IMPORT-GENERIC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51694487372082,"sku":"BD3031","price":119.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/59c1ef95350f830fdd049a06db436ebf.jpg?v=1788324734","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/import-bd3031-cut-off-wheel-3-in-type-1-46-grit-aluminum-oxide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
