Description
Overview
The DeWalt DW8427 is a 7-inch Type 27 cutting wheel for metal. Its thin 0.045-inch profile and high grain concentration are intended for aggressive cutting, with fiberglass reinforcement in the wheel construction.
Features
- Thin cutting profile.
- Temper Point abrasive-grain technology.
- Two fiberglass reinforcement layers.
Specifications
- Model: DW8427
- Diameter × thickness: 7 × 0.045 in.
- Arbor: 7/8 in.
- Maximum speed: 8,700 RPM
- Wheel type: Type 27
Applications
Use DW8427 for cutting carbon steel, stainless steel and nickel-based alloys with a compatible tool and cutting setup.
Selection and Use
- Match Type 27 geometry, diameter and arbor to the tool’s requirements; a wheel that fits the arbor alone is not sufficient.
- Keep operating speed at or below the 8,700 RPM wheel rating. This is a cutting wheel, not a general surface-grinding wheel.
