Value Collection W11T172 Grinding Wheel 7in Type 27 42

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION W11T172 is a depressed center grinding wheel rated for Type 27 and Type 42 angle grinder use. It measures 7 inches in diameter with a 1/16-inch thickness and a 7/8-inch arbor hole, making it a thin cutoff-style profile suited for aggressive cutting and light grinding on metal stock. The abrasive matrix is aluminum oxide at 30 grit with a resinoid bond, designated A30-ZIP, and the wheel is rated to a maximum of 8,600 RPM. It is installed and used by metalworkers, pipefitters, ironworkers, and general fabrication trades requiring controlled material removal on ferrous metals.

This wheel is appropriate for flat and beveled surface grinding as well as cutoff work on structural steel, pipe, angle iron, and similar ferrous materials. The dual Type 27 and Type 42 rating allows use on standard depressed-center grinders as well as angle-style configurations. The 30-grit aluminum oxide matrix provides fast stock removal on carbon steel and other hard metals in fabrication, maintenance, and field repair applications. Sold in a package quantity of 25 wheels per order unit.

Installation Notes

Grinding wheel installation and operation should be performed by qualified personnel following ANSI B7.1 safety standards and applicable workplace safety regulations. Always verify the grinder spindle speed does not exceed the wheel maximum RPM rating before mounting. Inspect the wheel for cracks or damage before each use and never operate a damaged wheel. Use the correct arbor flanges and guard configuration specified for the grinder and wheel type.
