Norton 66252842015 Type 27 Cut-off Wheel 6x0.045x7/8

Product Description

The NORTON 66252842015 is a Type 27 depressed-center cut-off wheel designed for right-angle grinder applications in metal cutting. Built with an aluminum oxide abrasive grain, this wheel delivers consistent stock removal on ferrous metals including mild steel, structural steel, and iron. At 6 inches in diameter with a 0.045-inch thickness and a 7/8-inch arbor bore, it provides a thin kerf that minimizes heat buildup and material loss at the cut. The maximum operating speed is rated at 10185 RPM, making it suited for standard 6-inch right-angle grinder heads used by fabricators, pipefitters, ironworkers, and general trade professionals.

This wheel is intended for metal cutting tasks in both shop and field environments. Typical applications include cutting structural steel, pipe, angle iron, rebar, and sheet metal. The Type 27 depressed-center profile allows the wheel to be used flush or at a slight angle, giving the operator clearance for the grinder body during plunge and straight cuts. It is sold individually and is also available in case quantities of 25, making it practical for ongoing production or service work where wheel consumption is high.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified operator following the grinder and wheel manufacturer safety guidelines. Always verify the grinder's no-load RPM does not exceed the wheel's 10185 RPM maximum rating before mounting. Inspect the wheel for cracks or chips before each use and never use a damaged wheel. Mount using the correct flanges and guard per ANSI B7.1 standards, and ensure the guard is in place before operating.
