Product Description
Milwaukee 6 in. x .045 in. x 7/8 in. Performance+ Metal Cut Off Wheel - Type 1 (25-Pack)
Model Number: 49-94-0123
The Milwaukee 49-94-0123 is a 25-pack of 6 in. x .045 in. x 7/8 in. Performance+ Metal Cut Off Wheels in the Type 1 flat profile, Milwaukee's premium-tier cut-off wheel in the largest diameter of the thin-wheel range. At 6 in., it delivers the deepest cut of the hand-held cut-off wheels, clearing 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, and it is sized for 6 in. angle grinders running a 7/8 in. arbor. The Performance+ formula is what sets it apart from a standard wheel: an advanced aluminum oxide grain that holds a sharp cutting edge throughout the cut, an enhanced bonding structure that consistently releases fresh grain as the wheel wears, and a higher grain concentration, all built on two full sheets of high-strength fiberglass reinforcement. The thin .045 in. kerf keeps the cut fast and clean even at this larger diameter, removing little material per pass to hold heat down and waste less stock.
Milwaukee rates the Performance+ line for up to 5X the life in metal cutting and up to 25 percent faster cutting versus standard competition. That extended life matters most at the 6 in. size, since larger wheels cost more per wheel, so getting several times the life out of each one meaningfully lowers the cost per cut and cuts down on wheel changes during heavy work. The wheels cut with wide versatility across ferrous metals, handling carbon steel, stainless steel, and nickel-based alloys, and standing up to the heaviest jobsite materials those categories cover: thick steel plate and bar, large angle iron, heavy pipe and conduit, rebar, threaded rod, and structural sections. For fabrication, structural, and heavy maintenance crews cutting large material all day, this is the wheel that keeps the work moving with the fewest interruptions.
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 49-94-0123 is bulk-sized for the high-volume crews that get the most out of the extended Performance+ life on the largest hand-held wheels.
