6" X .040" X 5/8"-11 T27 Depressed Center Thin Cut-Off Wheel - 10 Pack

Benchmark Abrasives 6" x .040" x 5/8"-11 T27 depressed center thin cut-off wheels are built for fast, precise metal cutting with the added reach of a 6" wheel and the convenience of a threaded hub. The ultra-thin .040" profile creates a narrow kerf with minimal material removal, making these wheels a strong choice for fabrication, welding, maintenance, and repair work where cutting speed, reach, and control matter.

Made with aluminum oxide abrasive grain, these Type 27 wheels are designed for cutting steel, stainless steel, and other approved metals. The depressed-center construction provides a practical mounting profile for compatible angle grinders, while the 5/8"-11 threaded hub eliminates the separate plain-arbor flange setup used with conventional 7/8" wheels.

With a 5/8"-11 threaded hub and a maximum speed of 11,000 RPM, this wheel is designed for compatible 6" angle grinders approved for Type 27 bonded cut-off wheels. The machine must be specifically rated for a 6" wheel and equipped with the proper cut-off guard and mounting configuration.

Bottom line, these cut off wheels offer LESS cutting resistance for fast work, LESS work piece waste, LESS vibration, LESS burrs and sparks and LESS dust than the competition.

Machine Compatibility

Designed for compatible 6" angle grinders with a 5/8"-11 spindle that are approved for Type 27 bonded cut-off wheel use.

Compatible examples include:

• Makita® GA6020YX1 (10,000 RPM)
• Bosch® GWS13-60 (9,300 RPM)
• Milwaukee® 2980-20 (9,000 RPM)
• DEWALT® DCG418 (9,000 RPM)

Use the grinder manufacturer's approved 5/8"-11 hubbed-wheel mounting setup and cutting guard. Check full thread engagement and that the wheel stays within the guard; do not clamp the threaded hub between plain-arbor wheel flanges. Other models may also be compatible when they meet the same wheel and setup requirements.

Do not install this wheel on a smaller grinder simply because the 5/8"-11 thread matches. The machine must be specifically approved for a 6" wheel.

Cutting Performance

The .040" profile produces a narrow kerf with minimal material removal, while the 6" diameter provides more reach than smaller 4-1/2" or 5" wheels.

The threaded hub also makes installation and wheel changes straightforward, giving fabricators a convenient option for repetitive cutting applications where both reach and a thin cutting profile are important.

Despite its Type 27 depressed-center shape, this wheel is designed strictly for cutting and must not be used for face grinding or side loading.

Safety Tips

• Use this wheel for cutting only. Never grind with the side or face of the wheel.
• Never exceed the wheel's 11,000 RPM maximum speed.
• Use only on machines specifically approved for 6" bonded abrasive cut-off wheels.
• Confirm the grinder uses a compatible 5/8"-11 spindle.
• Always use the proper cut-off wheel guard specified for the grinder and wheel configuration.
• Make sure the threaded hub is fully and correctly engaged before operation.
• Inspect the wheel before use and do not operate cracked, chipped, damaged, or improperly stored wheels.
• Keep the wheel straight in the cut and avoid side loading.
• Do not force or twist the wheel through the workpiece.
• Wear appropriate eye and face protection, hearing protection, gloves, and other PPE required for the application.
