Product Description
Milwaukee 6 in. x .045 in. x 7/8 in. Performance+ Metal Cut Off Wheel - Type 1 (10-Pack)
Model Number: 49-94-0121
The Milwaukee 49-94-0121 is a 10-pack of 6 in. x .045 in. x 7/8 in. Performance+ Metal Cut Off Wheels in the Type 1 flat profile, engineered for long life and fast cuts in metal and stainless steel. These wheels are built with Milwaukee's formula of resin bonding agents and aluminum oxide grain, a combination that keeps the wheel cutting fast and clean while maintaining control throughout the cut. The thin .045 in. kerf removes less material on each pass, which means faster cuts, less heat buildup in the workpiece, and less of the material loss that comes with thicker wheels. Each wheel is manufactured with two full sheets of high-strength fiberglass reinforcement, the construction that lets the wheel stand up to the side loads and impacts of real cutting work rather than chipping or breaking down prematurely. The Type 1 profile is the flat, straight wheel used for straight-line cut-off work on an angle grinder or dedicated cut-off tool.
Milwaukee rates the Performance+ line for up to 2X the life and 10 percent faster cutting compared to standard competition, so a single wheel does more work before it needs changing and the full 10-pack carries a crew through a meaningful stretch of production cutting. The wheels offer wide versatility across ferrous metals, cutting carbon steel, stainless steel, and nickel-based alloys, and they handle the everyday jobsite materials that fall into those categories: steel stock, angle iron, pipe, conduit, rebar, threaded rod, and similar ferrous work. Because the aluminum oxide formula is tuned for steel and stainless, these are a strong general-purpose choice for fabrication, mechanical, electrical, and structural trades that cut metal throughout the day.
The 7/8 in. arbor is the standard mounting size for 6 in. angle grinders and cut-off tools, so these wheels drop onto the tools most shops already run without an adapter. Before mounting, always confirm the maximum safe RPM printed on the wheel and make sure it meets or exceeds your tool's rated speed, and never run a wheel faster than the speed marked on it. Inspect each wheel for damage before use, use the tool's guard, and wear appropriate eye and face protection when cutting. Supplied as a 10-pack, the 49-94-0121 is sized for the way these wheels actually get used, since thin cut-off wheels are a consumable that gets worked down to the arbor on a busy job, and keeping a full pack on hand means no stopping to hunt for a fresh wheel mid-cut.
