Value Collection BD3002 Cut-off Wheel 14 in Type 1 46 Grit

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BD3002 is a Type 1 flat cut-off wheel engineered for cutting steel in demanding trade and industrial applications. Built with reinforced aluminum oxide abrasive at 46 grit, it delivers aggressive material removal on ferrous metals. The wheel measures 14 inches in diameter with a 3/32-inch thickness and a 1-inch arbor hole, making it compatible with large angle grinders and chop saws rated for this size. Maximum operating speed is 4,400 RPM. The reinforced construction helps resist shattering under load. Hardness code R provides a firm bond suited for harder steels.

This cut-off wheel is intended for cutting steel in fabrication shops, mechanical rooms, and field service environments. Typical applications include cutting structural steel, pipe, rebar, and angle iron. It is commonly used by HVAC technicians, pipefitters, electricians, ironworkers, and general maintenance trades where a large-diameter cut-off wheel is required. The 14-inch diameter makes it appropriate for stationary chop saws and large-diameter right-angle grinders rather than smaller handheld tools.

Key Features

• Reinforced aluminum oxide abrasive construction resists fracture under cutting load
• 46 grit provides aggressive stock removal on steel and ferrous materials
• Type 1 flat profile for straight, plunge, and chop-saw cutting operations
• 14-inch diameter with 3/32-inch thickness suits large stationary and angle grinders
• Hardness code R bond holds grain firmly for consistent cut performance on harder steels
• 1-inch arbor hole fits standard large-diameter grinder and chop-saw spindles

Compatibility

Designed for use on steel. Fits grinders and chop saws with a 1-inch arbor and a maximum wheel diameter of 14 inches, provided the tool is rated for at least 4,400 RPM or the wheel RPM rating meets or exceeds the tool RPM rating.

Installation Notes

Installation and mounting must be performed by a qualified operator familiar with abrasive wheel safety. Always verify that the tool's rated RPM equals or exceeds the wheel's 4,400 RPM maximum before mounting. Power down and disconnect the tool from its power source before changing wheels. Inspect the wheel for cracks or damage before each use and never operate a damaged wheel. Comply with ANSI B7.1 safety requirements for the use, care, and protection of abrasive wheels.
