Metabo 655323000 Type 1 Cutoff Wheel 4 in 60 Grit

Product Description

The METABO 655323000 is a Type 1 flat cutoff wheel designed for fast, clean cuts on steel using angle grinders. It measures 4 inches in diameter with a 0.04-inch thickness and a 3/8-inch arbor hole. The wheel is constructed from aluminum oxide abrasive bonded with a resinoid bond and reinforced for added strength under load. At 60 grit and a hardness code of T, it delivers aggressive stock removal while maintaining structural integrity at speeds up to 22,000 RPM. Weighing just 0.05 pounds, it adds minimal rotating mass to the grinder. This wheel carries the A60TZ specification designation and is suited for production or maintenance cutting tasks.

This cutoff wheel is intended for use on steel in both residential maintenance and light commercial or industrial settings. It mounts to standard angle grinders with a 3/8-inch arbor and is well suited for cutting rebar, pipe, sheet metal, and structural steel in fabrication, welding, and mechanical service applications. The Type 1 (Type 01/41) flat profile keeps the contact zone narrow for precise, controlled cuts.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified operator following ANSI B7.1 and tool manufacturer guidelines. Always power down and disconnect the grinder before mounting or removing a wheel. Inspect the wheel for cracks or chips before each use and never exceed the maximum rated RPM marked on the wheel. Use the appropriate guard for the wheel diameter and wear appropriate personal protective equipment including a face shield.
