Value Collection BD3024 Cutoff Wheel Type 1 4 in Aluminum Oxide

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BD3024 is a Type 1 reinforced cutoff wheel designed for straight grinder use in metal cutting applications. Measuring 4 inches in diameter and 0.035 inches thick with a 1/4 inch arbor hole, this wheel mounts on standard angle grinders and die grinders used in fabrication, maintenance, and mechanical service work. The abrasive material is aluminum oxide with a 60 grit and hardness code S, rated to a maximum of 19,000 RPM. It carries an A60S specification designation and is suited for cutting ferrous steel. The slim 0.035 inch kerf minimizes material loss and reduces heat buildup during cuts.

This cutoff wheel is intended for cutting steel in residential and commercial trade environments. Typical applications include cutting pipe, conduit, angle iron, threaded rod, and sheet metal. Plumbers, pipefitters, electricians, HVAC technicians, and general maintenance mechanics commonly use Type 1 cutoff wheels of this size on 4-inch right-angle grinders and rotary tools. The 4-inch diameter and narrow profile make it practical for work in confined spaces where larger wheels cannot fit.

Key Features

• Type 1 (01/41) flat wheel profile for straight cutting on angle grinders
• Aluminum oxide abrasive, 60 grit, hardness code S for steel cutting
• Reinforced construction for durability and reduced breakage risk at speed
• Slim 0.035 inch thickness minimizes kerf and heat during cuts
• Rated to 19,000 RPM maximum for use on standard small-diameter grinders
• A60S specification for consistent abrasive performance on ferrous material

Compatibility

Designed as a Type 1 cutoff wheel for use with 4-inch angle grinders and rotary tools equipped with a 1/4 inch arbor, suitable for cutting steel and ferrous materials.

Installation Notes

Installation and wheel changes must be performed by a qualified operator with the tool unplugged or the power source locked out before mounting or removing the wheel. Inspect the wheel for cracks or chips before each use and never operate above the 19,000 RPM maximum speed rating. Always use the appropriate guard for the grinder and wear eye protection, a face shield, and appropriate PPE per ANSI B7.1 and OSHA 1910.243 guidelines. Never use a damaged or altered wheel.
