Norton 66252843220 Type 27 Depressed Center Wheel 5in

Product Description

The NORTON 66252843220 is a Type 27 depressed center wheel designed for aggressive cutting and grinding applications using an angle grinder. Built with a Zirconia Alumina abrasive at 24 grit medium grade, this wheel delivers fast, consistent material removal on metal and other hard surfaces. It measures 5 inches in diameter and 0.045 inches thick, with a 7/8-inch arbor hole for standard angle grinder spindle fitment. The resinoid bond holds abrasive grains firmly under load, and the wheel is rated to a maximum of 12,225 RPM. It weighs 0.129 pounds and ships in individual packaging.

This wheel is suited for metal fabrication, weld removal, surface preparation, and general grinding tasks in industrial, commercial, and contractor settings. The thin 0.045-inch profile makes it appropriate for both cutting and light grinding passes. It is compatible with standard angle grinders equipped with a 7/8-inch arbor. Installers and fabricators working on structural steel, sheet metal, and similar materials will find the 24-grit Zirconia Alumina construction well matched to high-stock-removal tasks.
