Product Description
Milwaukee 4-1/2 in. x 1/4 in. x 7/8 in. Ceramic+ Metal Grinding Wheel - Type 27 (10-Pack)
Model Number: 49-94-0703
The Milwaukee 49-94-0703 is a 10-pack of 4-1/2 in. x 1/4 in. x 7/8 in. Ceramic+ Metal Grinding Wheels in the Type 27 depressed-center profile, Milwaukee's top-tier grinding wheel built for the fastest, coolest, lowest-effort material removal in metal and stainless steel. What separates the Ceramic+ line from the standard and Performance+ grinding wheels is the abrasive itself: it uses self-sharpening, shaped ceramic grain. Rather than dulling as it works, ceramic grain fractures in a controlled way during grinding, constantly exposing fresh, sharp cutting points, so the wheel keeps removing material fast and with less push from the operator throughout its life instead of slowing down as it wears. That self-sharpening action delivers cooler cutting, which protects heat-sensitive stainless and reduces the discoloration and burning that heat causes, along with reduced effort and smoother, more controlled grinding. This is a grinding wheel, not a cut-off wheel: the thick 1/4 in. body and depressed-center Type 27 shape are made to remove material with the face of the wheel, grinding welds flat, taking off flash and burrs, beveling and prepping edges, and stripping rust and scale. Mounted on the most common 4-1/2 in. grinder size with a 7/8 in. arbor, each wheel is built with three full sheets of high-strength fiberglass reinforcement for durability under heavy grinding.
The Ceramic+ line is built for cutting speed and ease with cooler cuts, driven by the premium self-sharpening ceramic grain and an optimized bond that releases grain uniformly for consistent performance. 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. Because the ceramic grain stays sharp and cuts cool, these wheels are especially valuable on stainless and other heat-sensitive alloys, and for operators doing heavy daily grinding who want the wheel to do the work with less physical effort.
It helps to know where this wheel sits in Milwaukee's lineup. The Ceramic+ grinding wheel is the premium choice built for the fastest, coolest, lowest-effort removal with self-sharpening ceramic grain; the Performance+ grinding wheel uses zirconia grain for up to 5X life; and the standard grinding wheel uses aluminum oxide at up to 2X life for a lower cost per wheel. These wheels fit standard 4-1/2 in. angle grinders that use a 7/8 in. arbor, and Milwaukee rates them to a maximum of 13,580 RPM. Because this is a grinding wheel, work with the face for material removal and never use it as a cut-off wheel for edge cutting; 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 exceed it, inspect each wheel before use, keep the guard in place, and wear appropriate eye and face protection when grinding. Supplied as a 10-pack, the 49-94-0703 keeps a full box of premium ceramic wheels on hand for production grinding.
