Product Description
Milwaukee 5 in. x 1/4 in. x 7/8 in. Metal Grinding Wheel - Type 27 (10-Pack)
Model Number: 49-94-0513
The Milwaukee 49-94-0513 is a 10-pack of 5 in. x 1/4 in. x 7/8 in. Metal Grinding Wheels in the Type 27 depressed-center profile, built for long life and fast material removal in metal and stainless steel. The 5 in. diameter gives more abrasive surface and more reach than a 4-1/2 in. wheel, so it covers ground faster on large weldments, plate, and structural work and suits the 5 in. angle grinders that trade the extra size for higher removal rates. This is a grinding wheel, not a cut-off wheel: the thick 1/4 in. body and the depressed-center Type 27 shape are made to take material down with the face of the wheel, grinding welds flat, removing flash and burrs, beveling and prepping edges, dressing cut ends, and stripping rust, scale, and coatings. The offset hub lets the wheel work into the surface at a proper grinding angle while keeping the grinder body clear. Each wheel combines resin bonding agents with aluminum oxide grain for smooth, controlled removal, and carries three full sheets of high-strength fiberglass reinforcement, one more than Milwaukee's cut-off wheels, to handle the face loading grinding places on the wheel.
Milwaukee rates this metal line for up to 2X the life and rapid material removal versus standard competition, so each wheel grinds longer between changes and pulls metal down faster while staying smooth and controlled. The wheels grind carbon steel, stainless steel, and nickel-based alloys, and stand up to the full range of ferrous work: steel plate and bar, angle iron, pipe and structural sections, rebar, and weldments. The aluminum oxide grain keeps biting into the metal as it wears instead of glazing, which holds the removal rate deep into the life of the wheel and makes the 5 in. size a strong choice for shops running larger grinders on heavy fabrication and structural work.
These wheels fit 5 in. angle grinders that use a 7/8 in. arbor. Because this is a grinding wheel, work with the face of the wheel for material removal and never use it as a cut-off wheel for edge cutting, just as a thin cut-off wheel should never be used for grinding; matching the wheel to the task is a safety requirement. Always confirm the maximum RPM printed on the wheel meets or exceeds your grinder's rated speed, and never run a wheel faster than the speed marked on it. Inspect each wheel for cracks or damage before use, keep the grinder guard in place, and wear appropriate eye and face protection when grinding. Supplied as a 10-pack, the 49-94-0513 keeps a full box on hand for the steady wheel consumption of production grinding.
