I bought 2 of the dewalt brand cutting/gringing wheels - the 1/8 for a narrow kerf and where I was mainly going to cut, plus the 1/4 for surface finishing or post welding touch up.

You need to hand tighten these with the arbor lock button pressed pretty good or they will spin themselvs off when the trigger is released due to the weight and inertia. There is no locking system used on these since they have embedded screw threads that mate with the arbor.

The embedded mesh lets you do face work even with withe 1/8" blade, so it's sort of a do-all, but for work where I want to bear down on it I bought the 1/4"

The dewalt quality is definitely here in these cutting surfaces, from the threadded screw-on convenience to the mesh in the compound to protect against breakage.

The picture is wrong but it is a DeWalt DW4523. The big difference from the picture is the hole is threaded.

Very good wheel that won't wear out quickly. Have been using it a lot on various projects involving metalwork I have. Love Dewalt tools and they don't disappoint

I found this DeWalt General Purpose Metal Grinding Wheel to be outstanding in quality. It fit the grinder perfectly and worked very well (cut metal much faster than some other brands I have tried). Also, it doesn't wear out as quickly as some I've tried. The product was packed securely and shipped promptly. I highly recommend Amazon.
