Value Collection BD3053 Type 27 Grinding Wheel 4.5 in 24 Grit

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BD3053 is a Type 27 depressed center grinding wheel designed for aggressive material removal on metals and ferrous surfaces. Built with aluminum oxide abrasive and a coarse 24 grit rating, it delivers fast stock removal on steel, iron, and similar hard materials. The resinoid bond holds abrasive grains firmly under high-load grinding conditions, and the wheel is rated to a maximum of 13,300 RPM. At 4.5 inches in diameter and 0.25 inches thick, it is sized for standard 4.5-inch angle grinders. Installation uses a 5/8-11 threaded connector, which is the common arbor thread on most angle grinders used in fabrication, welding, and construction trades.

This wheel is suited for metal fabrication shops, welding operations, and construction job sites where surface conditioning, weld grinding, and deburring are routine tasks. The Type 27 depressed-center profile keeps the wheel flat against the workpiece for grinding at low angles, making it practical for surface work on flat stock, weld seams, and structural steel. It is installed and used by fabricators, ironworkers, pipefitters, and general tradespeople who require consistent, controlled material removal.

Key Features

• 24 grit aluminum oxide abrasive for coarse, high-rate material removal
• Type 27 depressed center profile optimized for flat-angle surface grinding
• Resinoid bond with hard grade (hardness code U) for durability under load
• Maximum speed rating of 13,300 RPM compatible with standard 4.5-inch angle grinders
• 5/8-11 threaded arbor connector fits common angle grinder spindles
• Specification grade A24U for straightforward replacement sourcing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use grinding wheel for 4.5-inch angle grinders equipped with a 5/8-11 threaded spindle, which is standard on most corded and cordless angle grinders used in metal fabrication and construction.

Installation Notes

This wheel is installed and operated by tradespeople familiar with angle grinder safety procedures. Always power down and disconnect the grinder from its power source before mounting or removing the wheel. Verify the grinder spindle speed does not exceed the 13,300 RPM maximum rating marked on the wheel before operation. Wear appropriate eye protection, a face shield, and gloves during use, and ensure the grinder guard is in place as required by OSHA and tool manufacturer guidelines.
