Milwaukee PERFORMANCE+ Metal Cut Off Wheel, 6" X .045" X 7/8" - Type 1

Milwaukee PERFORMANCE+ Metal Cut Off Wheel, 6" X .045" X 7/8" - Type 1

The Milwaukee 49-94-0123 PERFORMANCE+ Metal Cut Off Wheel is a high-performance Type 1 cut-off wheel engineered for faster cutting, longer wheel life, and improved control in metal and stainless-steel applications. Featuring advanced aluminum oxide grain and an enhanced bonding structure, this wheel maintains sharp cutting performance while continuously exposing fresh abrasive grain for cleaner, more consistent cuts throughout its lifespan. Reinforced with 2 sheets of high-strength fiberglass and a high grain concentration, it delivers up to 5X longer life and 25% faster cutting compared to standard wheels. Built to handle steel, pipe, rebar, angle iron, and stainless materials with ease, this wheel is basically the “work smarter, not harder” version of abrasive cutting.
