Value Collection BD3001 Cut-off Wheel 14 in Type 1 36 Grit

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BD3001 is a Type 1 flat cut-off wheel designed for aggressive cutting of steel in industrial and trade applications. Built with an aluminum oxide abrasive matrix and rated at a maximum of 4400 RPM, this wheel measures 14 inches in diameter and 1/8 inches thick with a 1 inch arbor hole. The reinforced construction and 36 grit rating make it suited for fast, straight cuts on ferrous metal stock. It is commonly used by fabricators, pipefitters, and maintenance mechanics operating large stationary or handheld cut-off saws and angle grinders sized to accept 14 inch wheels.

This wheel is intended for cutting steel in fabrication shops, mechanical rooms, and field service environments. The Type 1 flat profile is the standard configuration for straight cut-off work on metal pipe, bar stock, structural steel, and sheet metal. The 36 grit aluminum oxide abrasive provides a balance of cut speed and wheel life appropriate for production cutting tasks. The hardness code R designation indicates a relatively hard bond suited for softer steels and high-pressure grinding conditions.

Compatibility

Designed for use on steel. Fits cut-off saws and angle grinders with a 1 inch arbor and capacity for a 14 inch Type 1 wheel. Always verify the tool's maximum RPM rating meets or exceeds the wheel's 4400 RPM maximum before use.

Installation Notes

Cut-off wheels must be mounted by a qualified operator following the tool manufacturer's guard and flange requirements. Inspect the wheel for cracks or chips before mounting — never use a damaged wheel. Ensure the tool's rated RPM equals or exceeds the wheel's maximum RPM rating. Wear appropriate PPE including face shield, gloves, and hearing protection during operation.
