Milwaukee 49-94-1905 Masonry Cut Off Wheel Type 1

Product Description

The MILWAUKEE 49-94-1905 is a Type 1 masonry cut-off wheel sized at 4.5 inches in diameter, 0.125 inches thick, and 0.875 inches arbor. It is built with a silicon carbide abrasive grain bonded with a resin formula designed to maintain cutting speed throughout the wheel's life. Two full sheets of high-strength fiberglass reinforcement are embedded in the wheel body for structural integrity under load. This wheel is intended for use with 4.5-inch angle grinders and is installed by construction tradespeople, masons, tile setters, and general contractors working with concrete and masonry materials.

This cut-off wheel is suited for cutting concrete block, brick, stone, tile, and similar masonry substrates. It performs in both residential and commercial construction environments, including flatwork, wall construction, and demolition cuts. The Type 1 flat profile is appropriate for straight plunge and through cuts rather than grinding applications. It fits standard 4.5-inch grinders with a 0.875-inch arbor bore.
