Question 1

What is the Dewalt DWA4500IA-AE 100 x 6 x 16 Metal Grinding Wheel T27, and what is it best used for?

Accepted Answer

It's a 100 mm diameter metal grinding wheel with a 6 mm thickness and a 16 mm bore, shaped in a T27 depressed-center form. It’s designed for fast stock removal on metal surfaces while delivering a smooth finish, making it ideal for grinding, deburring, and finishing welds on ferrous and non-ferrous metals.

Question 2

What are the key specifications and features I should know about this wheel?

Accepted Answer

Specs: 100 x 6 x 16 mm, T27 shape, aluminum oxide abrasive, curved air-channel core for coolant flow and heat management, high-strength bond matrix, max speed 8,000 RPM, fits most standard grinders, reusable, and it’s supported by a lifetime warranty per the product details.

Question 3

How do I install this grinding wheel safely and correctly?

Accepted Answer

Power off the grinder, remove the guard, inspect the wheel for cracks, align the 16 mm bore with the grinder arbor, use the proper flanges, and tighten securely. Ensure the wheel is rated for your grinder’s RPM (max 8,000) and run the grinder at no-load for a few seconds before commencing work. Always wear appropriate PPE and keep the work area cool with proper coolant if needed.

Question 4

What is the difference between T27 and other wheel shapes like T29, and why would I choose T27?

Accepted Answer

T27 wheels have a depressed center for maximum surface contact and a smoother finishing action, ideal for surface grinding of metal. T29 wheels have a different profile that’s often used for more aggressive material removal. For finishing and weld smoothing on curved or flat metal surfaces, T27 is typically preferred.

Question 5

What metals can I safely grind with this wheel?

Accepted Answer

It’s suitable for a range of metals including steel, stainless steel, aluminum, brass, and cast iron. Always use the appropriate speeds and coolant to manage heat and prevent glazing or discoloration, especially on aluminum.

Question 6

How does this wheel compare to the Makita 100 x 6 x 16 metal grinding wheel (T27) on Fepy?

Accepted Answer

Both wheels share the same size and T27 shape, providing similar surface finishing characteristics. Differences typically lie in abrasive formulation, bond matrix, and price. See Makita’s page for exact specs and current pricing: https://fepy.com/product/makita-100-x-6-x-16-metal-grinding-wheel-t27

Question 7

How does this wheel compare to the Bosch 100 x 6 x 16 metal grinding wheel (T27) on Fepy?

Accepted Answer

Both are T27 wheels in the same size, offering smooth finishing with metal. Bosch may differ in abrasive grade, bond, and price. Check Bosch’s page for precise details: https://fepy.com/product/bosch-100-x-6-x-16-metal-grinding-wheel-t27

Question 8

Are there any safety or compliance guidelines I should follow when using this wheel?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Always use the proper guard and PPE (eye protection, gloves, hearing protection). Ensure the grinder’s RPM rating matches or exceeds 8,000 RPM. Do not use on non-metal materials or with damaged wheels. Use coolant or allow for cooling to avoid overheating, and avoid wheel loading by maintaining consistent feed pressure.

Question 9

What are common use cases or applications for this wheel?

Accepted Answer

Use it for grinding ferrous and non-ferrous metals, deburring weld seams, shaping edges, and achieving a smooth finish on metal surfaces. It’s suitable for flat and curved areas where a controlled, fine finish is required.

Question 10

How can I ensure I get good value from this wheel (price, performance, and longevity)?

Accepted Answer

Consider its aluminum oxide abrasive, curved air-channel design for better coolant flow and heat control, and the 8,000 RPM rating against your grinder’s capabilities. The wheel is designed for long life and consistent performance, with a reusable build and a durability-focused bond matrix, which helps justify the cost over time.

Question 11

Will this wheel fit my grinder out of the box, or will I need adapters?

Accepted Answer

This wheel uses a 16 mm bore and is intended to fit grinders that accept a 16 mm arbor with the appropriate flanges. Verify your grinder supports a 16 mm bore and use the correct flange kit to secure it safely.
