Product Description
Milwaukee 6 in. x .045 in. x 7/8 in. Metal Cut Off Wheel - Type 1 (25-Pack)
Model Number: 49-94-0023
The Milwaukee 49-94-0023 is a 25-pack of 6 in. x .045 in. x 7/8 in. Metal Cut Off Wheels in the Type 1 flat profile, engineered for long life and fast cuts in metal and stainless steel. At 6 in., this is the largest diameter in Milwaukee's thin cut-off wheel range, giving the deepest cut and the most reach, so it clears the heaviest pipe, the largest angle iron, and thick sections that a 4-1/2 in. or 5 in. wheel cannot reach through in one pass. It is sized for 6 in. angle grinders and cut-off tools running a 7/8 in. arbor. The thin .045 in. kerf keeps the cut fast and clean by removing little material on each pass, which holds heat down in the workpiece and wastes less of the stock being cut, even at this larger diameter. 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 heavy cutting rather than 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 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 heaviest everyday materials those categories cover: thick steel stock and bar, large angle iron, pipe and conduit, rebar, threaded rod, and structural sections. The 6 in. size, with the deepest cut in the thin-wheel range, is the choice for fabrication, structural, and heavy maintenance crews cutting large material where the smaller diameters run out of depth.
These wheels fit 6 in. angle grinders and cut-off tools that use a 7/8 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 49-94-0023 is bulk-sized for high-volume cutting, keeping a deep supply of wheels on hand for a crew that goes through them fast.
