Milwaukee 49-94-5730 Type 27 Grinding Wheel 5 in Concrete

Product Description

The MILWAUKEE 49-94-5730 is a Type 27 depressed-center grinding wheel engineered for concrete grinding applications. Built with a silicon carbide abrasive designated C24T, it delivers coarse 24-grit stock removal on masonry and concrete surfaces. The wheel measures 5 inches in diameter with a 0.25-inch thickness and a 7/8-inch arbor bore. It is rated to a maximum of 12,225 RPM. Sold in a 10-pack, this wheel suits grinding contractors, concrete finishers, and trade professionals who work through abrasive material at volume and need consistent performance across a full case.

This grinding wheel is intended for use on angle grinders in concrete grinding applications. The Type 27 profile provides a depressed-center geometry that allows the wheel to work at a low contact angle, making it practical for surface prep, weld blending on masonry substrates, and light material removal on concrete floors, walls, and poured surfaces. It fits standard 5-inch angle grinders with a 7/8-inch arbor. Suited for both residential and light commercial concrete work.

Installation Notes

Grinding wheels must be installed and operated by qualified personnel in accordance with ANSI B7.1 safety standards. Before mounting, inspect the wheel for cracks or chips and confirm the tool arbor size and RPM rating do not exceed the wheel specifications. Always power down and unplug the angle grinder before changing wheels. Wear appropriate PPE including eye protection and gloves when handling and operating abrasive wheels.
