Product Description
Milwaukee 7 in. x 3/32 in. x 7/8 in. Performance+ Metal Cut Off Wheel - Type 27 (25-Pack)
Model Number: 49-94-0137
The Milwaukee 49-94-0137 is a 25-pack of 7 in. x 3/32 in. x 7/8 in. Performance+ Metal Cut Off Wheels in the Type 27 depressed-center profile, Milwaukee's premium-tier cut-off wheel in its largest diameter and the depressed-center shape. It is important to understand what Type 27 means here: this is a cut-off wheel for cutting, not a thick grinding wheel, but it is built with a depressed-center, raised-hub design rather than a flat Type 1 profile. That depressed center provides clearance around the mounting flange, letting you cut flush against a surface and reach into tighter spots where the hardware on a flat wheel would interfere. At 7 in. it delivers the deepest cut of the range, and at 3/32 in. it is a step thicker than the .045 in. wheels used in the smaller sizes, a thickness Milwaukee matches to the larger diameter for added stability and durability under the heavier cutting a 7 in. grinder takes on. It carries the full Performance+ formula: an advanced aluminum oxide grain that holds a sharp edge throughout the cut, an enhanced bonding structure that releases fresh grain as the wheel wears, and a higher grain concentration, all on two full sheets of high-strength fiberglass reinforcement.
Milwaukee rates the Performance+ line for up to 5X the life in metal cutting and up to 25 percent faster cutting versus standard competition, so a single wheel outlasts several standard wheels and cuts faster while holding consistent control from the first cut to the last. That extended life pays off most at the 7 in. size, where wheels cost more each, so getting several times the life meaningfully lowers the cost per cut. The wheels cut with wide versatility across ferrous metals, handling carbon steel, stainless steel, and nickel-based alloys, and taking on the heaviest jobsite materials: thick steel plate and bar, large angle iron, heavy pipe and conduit, rebar, and structural sections. When choosing between this Type 27 wheel and the flat Type 1 version, the decision is about access, not performance: reach for the Type 27 depressed-center wheel when you need to cut flush or work in a confined area, and the flat Type 1 wheel for straight, open cutting.
These wheels fit 7 in. angle grinders 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. Even though this wheel has the depressed-center shape associated with grinding wheels, it is a cut-off wheel and must be used for cutting only, never for grinding with the face of the wheel; 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 49-94-0137 is bulk-sized for the high-volume crews that get the most out of the extended Performance+ life on the largest wheels.
