Metabo US616726000 Type 27 Grinding Wheel 4.5 in

Product Description

The METABO US616726000 is a Type 27 depressed center grinding wheel designed for aggressive stock removal on ferrous metal and steel surfaces. Built with an aluminum oxide abrasive and a resinoid bond, this wheel delivers consistent cut rate and durability under sustained load. It measures 4.5 inches in diameter and 0.25 inches thick, with a 7/8 inch arbor hole for standard angle grinder spindle compatibility. The maximum rated speed is 13,300 RPM. This wheel is installed by metalworkers, pipefitters, ironworkers, fabricators, and maintenance trades who rely on angle grinders for weld grinding, surface prep, and deburring.

This wheel is suited for use on ferrous metals including mild steel, structural steel, and pipe. The Type 27 depressed-center profile allows flat and edge grinding contact, making it practical for weld seam removal, surface conditioning, and general metal fabrication tasks in both shop and field environments. The 4.5 inch diameter fits the most common class of small angle grinders found in trade use.
