Value Collection BD3063 Type 27 Grinding Wheel 6 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BD3063 is a Type 27 depressed center grinding wheel designed for use with angle grinders and right-angle grinders in metal fabrication, welding prep, and surface conditioning work. The wheel measures 6 inches in diameter with a 1/4-inch thickness and a 7/8-inch arbor hole. It is constructed with aluminum oxide abrasive bonded in a resinoid bond matrix, making it well suited for grinding carbon steel, ferrous metals, and similar hard materials. Maximum operating speed is rated at 10,200 RPM. This wheel is a standard consumable item stocked by metalworking shops, welding operations, and maintenance trades.

The BD3063 is intended for depressed center grinding applications where the wheel must clear the workpiece surface during operation. The Type 27 profile positions the grinding face at an angle to the backing plate, allowing effective stock removal and weld bead blending on flat and contoured surfaces. Typical applications include weld cleanup, deburring, and surface grinding on structural steel, plate, pipe, and fabricated assemblies. This wheel is used by ironworkers, pipefitters, welders, and general maintenance mechanics working in both shop and field environments.

Installation Notes

Installation and wheel changes must be performed with the grinder unplugged or the power source locked out and tagged out per applicable safety standards.
