How to choose the right cut-off wheel for metal in India?

For metal cutting in India, select a wheel compatible with your angle grinder's arbor size (typically 7/8" or 5/8") and RPM rating. Consider the material: aluminum oxide is good for steel, while zirconia or ceramic is better for stainless steel. Type 27 wheels offer clearance for angle grinding. Ensure the wheel's thickness suits your cut depth. CGW Abrasives offers reliable options imported directly for consistent performance.

What is the difference between Type 1 and Type 27 cut-off wheels?

Type 1 cut-off wheels are flat across the entire surface, providing maximum cutting depth and a thin kerf for straight cuts. Type 27 wheels have a depressed center around the arbor hole, offering extra clearance for the grinder's locking flange and increased rigidity for angle cuts. This CGW wheel is a Type 27.

Can I use this CGW Abrasives cut-off wheel on stainless steel?

While this wheel is primarily designed for general metal grinding with aluminum oxide, it can be used on stainless steel for basic cutting tasks. For applications requiring precise finishing on stainless steel without discoloration, wheels specifically rated for INOX (stainless steel) with contaminant-free abrasives are recommended. This wheel excels at rapid stock removal on various metals.
