Product Description
Milwaukee 4 in. Masonry Grinding Wheel - Type 27 (10 Pack)
Model Number: 49-94-1950
The Milwaukee 49-94-1950 is a 4 in. x 1/4 in. x 5/8 in. Masonry Grinding Wheel, Type 27, sold in a 10-pack. This is a grinding wheel, not a cut-off wheel: the 1/4 in. thickness and Type 27 depressed-center profile are built for grinding and rapid material removal on the face of the work, where a thin Type 1 cut-off wheel is built for straight cutting. It is also a masonry wheel, using a silicon carbide abrasive grain formulated for concrete and masonry rather than the aluminum oxide used on metal wheels. It is designed for long life and fast material removal on brick, block, stone, mortar, concrete, and other masonry, for tasks such as grinding down high spots, smoothing concrete surfaces, and removing excess mortar. The 5/8 in. arbor fits 4 in. angle grinders.
These wheels are reinforced with two full sheets of fiberglass for strength and durability under the side loads of grinding, and the silicon carbide grain delivers durable performance and smooth, controlled material removal through abrasive masonry. The Type 27 depressed center lets the operator work the wheel at an angle to the surface for efficient grinding and gives clearance for the mounting flange. With a 4 in. diameter, the wheel mounts on compact 4 in. angle grinders for close-quarters masonry grinding, and the 10-pack keeps a working supply on hand for high-volume concrete and masonry work.
When ordering, match the wheel to the task, the material, and the tool. This is a grinding wheel for material removal, not a cut-off wheel for cutting: do not attempt to cut with a grinding wheel, and do not grind on the flat face of a thin cut-off wheel. It is a masonry wheel for concrete and masonry only; for grinding metal in this same size and profile, order the 49-94-0501 metal grinding wheel instead. Grinding masonry generates respirable crystalline silica dust, often more than cutting does, so use appropriate dust control along with respiratory, eye, face, and hearing protection, and follow OSHA silica dust requirements. This wheel has a maximum operating speed of 15,300 RPM: always confirm the maximum RPM marked on the wheel is not exceeded by your grinder's rated speed, and confirm your grinder uses a 5/8 in. arbor. The wheels are consumable and sold as a 10-pack; the angle grinder is not included.
