Metallics CSW41227 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size grinder does the Metallics CSW41227 cutoff wheel fit?
The CSW41227 is a 4-1/2 inch wheel with a 7/8 inch arbor hole, so it mounts on any standard 4-1/2 inch angle grinder using the common 7/8 inch spindle arbor. If your grinder takes a 5/8-11 threaded hub instead of a plain 7/8 inch arbor, this wheel is not the one to order.
2) Is the Metallics CSW41227 a cutting wheel or a grinding wheel?
It is a cutoff wheel, not a grinding wheel. At .045 inch thick it is made for slicing through material with the edge of the wheel, things like threaded rod, strut, conduit and all-thread on an electrical rough-in. Do not use the face of it for grinding or deburring; a thin cutoff wheel is not built to take side load.
3) What does the T-27 designation on the Metallics CSW41227 wheel mean?
T-27 is the depressed center shape. The hub is recessed so the wheel sits flush to the grinder flange and gives you knuckle clearance when you are cutting flat against a surface, which is why it is the usual pick for cutting strut or rod in a ceiling or on a wall. A T-1 flat wheel of the same diameter cuts the same but sits differently on the guard and gives less clearance.
4) Is .045 the right thickness for cutting 1/2 inch threaded rod and conduit?
Yes. The .045 inch thickness on the CSW41227 is the general purpose cutoff thickness for electrical work, thin enough to cut fast through rod, EMT and strut without burning material away, and thick enough to hold up better than a .040 or thinner wheel. If you want the narrowest possible kerf on light sheet, a thinner wheel cuts cleaner; for everyday rod and conduit, .045 is the standard.
5) How do I order the Metallics 4-1/2 inch cutoff wheel by part number?
Order it as Metallics CSW41227. That single part number covers the 4-1/2 x .045 x 7/8 T-27 cutoff wheel; there are no size, thickness or arbor variations to specify under it.
