Value Collection BD3039 Type 1 Cutoff Wheel 4.5 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BD3039 is a Type 1 (01/41) flat cutoff wheel designed for aggressive cutting on steel and stainless steel. It measures 4.5 inches in diameter and 0.045 inches thick, with a 7/8-inch arbor hole. The abrasive matrix is aluminum oxide, reinforced for added structural integrity during high-speed operation, and rated at a 60 grit hardness code T. Maximum operating speed is 13,300 RPM. This wheel is intended for use with 4.5-inch angle grinders and is a standard tool for fabricators, pipefitters, ironworkers, and maintenance technicians who need fast, clean cutoffs on ferrous and stainless material.

This cutoff wheel is suited for both shop and field use where metal cutting is required on steel components, pipe, structural shapes, and stainless steel fabrications. The thin 0.045-inch kerf minimizes material loss and heat buildup during cuts. It is a practical choice for residential and light commercial trade work as well as industrial fabrication environments where a reliable, standard-profile cutting wheel is needed.

Key Features

• Type 1 (01/41) flat profile for straight cutoff applications
• Aluminum oxide abrasive, reinforced construction for durability at speed
• 60 grit rating with hardness code T for consistent material removal on ferrous metals
• 0.045-inch thin kerf reduces heat and material waste per cut
• 13,300 RPM maximum speed rating compatible with standard 4.5-inch angle grinders
• Rated for steel and stainless steel applications

Compatibility

Designed for use with 4.5-inch angle grinders and cutoff tools fitted with a 7/8-inch arbor. Suitable for cutting steel and stainless steel stock, pipe, and structural sections.

Installation Notes

Cutoff wheels must be installed and used by operators familiar with angle grinder safety practices. Always inspect the wheel for cracks or damage before mounting, and confirm the tool RPM rating does not exceed the wheel maximum of 13,300 RPM. Wear appropriate PPE including eye protection and gloves. Never apply side pressure to a Type 1 cutoff wheel — it is rated for radial cutting force only.
