Product Description
Milwaukee 4 in. x .040 in. x 5/8 in. Metal Cut Off Wheel - Type 1 (25-Pack)
Model Number: 49-94-0001
The Milwaukee 49-94-0001 is a 25-pack of 4 in. x .040 in. x 5/8 in. Metal Cut Off Wheels in the Type 1 flat profile, engineered for long life and fast cuts in metal and stainless steel. At just .040 in. thick, this is one of the thinnest cut-off wheels Milwaukee makes, and that thin kerf is the point: it removes very little material on each pass, so it cuts fast, generates less heat in the workpiece, and wastes almost none of the stock being cut. The 4 in. diameter on a 5/8 in. arbor sizes it for 4 in. angle grinders and cut-off tools, a compact combination well suited to close-quarters cutting where a full-size grinder will not fit. The wheels are engineered with a formula of resin bonding agents and aluminum oxide grain for clean, controlled cutting, and each one is built with two full sheets of high-strength fiberglass reinforcement so it stands up to the side loads and impacts of real cutting instead of chipping or breaking down early.
Milwaukee rates this metal line for up to 2X the life and 10 percent faster cutting versus standard competition, so each thin wheel lasts longer between changes and moves through material quickly while holding a clean, controlled line. The wheels cut with wide versatility across ferrous metals, handling carbon steel, stainless steel, and nickel-based alloys, and taking on the everyday materials those categories cover: steel stock and bar, angle iron, pipe and conduit, rebar, threaded rod, bolts, and strut. The thin .040 in. kerf makes them especially good for precise cuts, thin-wall material, and trimming fasteners and all-thread flush, where a thicker wheel would remove too much or run hot.
These wheels fit 4 in. angle grinders and cut-off tools that use a 5/8 in. arbor. Before mounting, always confirm the maximum safe RPM printed on the wheel meets or exceeds your tool's rated speed, and never run a wheel faster than the speed marked on it. Because this is a thin cut-off wheel, use it for cutting only and never for grinding with the face of the wheel, just as a thick grinding wheel should never be used for cutting; matching the wheel to the task is a safety requirement. Inspect each wheel for cracks or damage before use, keep the tool's guard in place, and wear appropriate eye and face protection when cutting. Supplied as a 25-pack, the 49-94-0001 is bulk-sized for high-volume cutting, keeping a deep supply of thin wheels on hand for a crew that goes through them fast.
