Value Collection W08L450 Type 27 Grinding Wheel 4.5in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION W08L450 is a Type 27 depressed center grinding wheel designed for aggressive material removal on metal surfaces. Measuring 4.5 inches in diameter and 0.25 inches thick with a 7/8-inch arbor hole, this wheel mounts directly to standard angle grinders via an arbor connector. The aluminum oxide abrasive grain handles ferrous metals, weld seams, and surface scale efficiently. Rated to a maximum of 13,300 RPM, it is suited for high-speed grinder use on fabrication and maintenance tasks. Metal fabricators, pipefitters, and maintenance mechanics are the primary users of this wheel type.

The W08L450 is intended for use on angle grinders accepting a 7/8-inch arbor and a 4.5-inch wheel. Typical applications include weld grinding, deburring, and surface conditioning on steel and iron workpieces in fabrication shops, field pipework, and general industrial maintenance. The depressed center profile allows the wheel face to contact the workpiece at a low angle, reducing interference between the grinder body and the work surface. This geometry is standard for flat grinding and blending passes.

Key Features

• Type 27 depressed center profile for low-angle flat grinding and weld blending
• Aluminum oxide abrasive grain rated for ferrous metal stock removal
• 13,300 maximum RPM rating compatible with standard 4.5-inch angle grinders
• 7/8-inch arbor hole fits widely available grinder spindles via arbor connector
• 4.5-inch diameter and 0.25-inch thickness in a compact, maneuverable form factor

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-mount replacement grinding wheel for angle grinders accepting a 4.5-inch Type 27 wheel with a 7/8-inch arbor connection and a spindle speed rated at or above 13,300 RPM.

Installation Notes

Installation and wheel changes must be performed by a qualified operator following ANSI B7.1 and applicable workplace safety standards. Disconnect and lock out the grinder from its power source before mounting or removing the wheel. Inspect the wheel for cracks or chips before each use and never exceed the rated maximum RPM marked on the wheel. Always install the appropriate guard per the grinder manufacturer's specifications before operating.
