Cleco 25GELC-120-W3T4 Cut-off Wheel Extended Horizontal Grinder | 4" Wheel Dia. | 1.4 HP | 12,000 RPM | Aluminum Housing | Side Exhaust

When a cutting job calls for a larger wheel while still needing the reach of an extended horizontal tool, the Cleco 25GELC-120-W3T4 Cut-off Wheel Extended Horizontal Grinder gives fabrication, maintenance, and repair teams a pneumatic solution for controlled cut-off work. This 25 Series model is built around a 4" wheel diameter, giving it more cutting depth than smaller 2-1/2" and 3" configurations while retaining the extended body layout needed to reach into frames, brackets, fixtures, and recessed assemblies. Its 1.4 HP motor helps maintain cutting power through routine metal separation and trimming tasks, and the 12,000 RPM free speed must be matched only with abrasive wheels rated for equal or higher operating speed.

The extended horizontal grinder format keeps the wheel aligned with the work path, making it useful when the operator needs to approach the cut from a longer reach position. The aluminum housing supports practical handling in shop and plant environments, while the side exhaust helps route discharged air away from the front of the tool and the immediate cut line. For buyers comparing Cleco 25GELC cut-off configurations, the W3T4 version is the larger 4" wheel option in the extended horizontal layout.

Type: Cut-off Wheel Extended Horizontal Grinder | Series: Cleco 25 Series | Model: 25GELC-120-W3T4 | Wheel Diameter: 4" | Power: 1.4 HP | Free Speed: 12,000 RPM | Housing: Aluminum | Exhaust: Side

Features:

• Extended horizontal grinder configuration improves access into recessed cutting locations, mounted components, and fixture-constrained work areas.
• 4" cut-off wheel capacity provides greater cut depth than smaller wheel configurations in the same extended grinder family.
• 1.4 HP pneumatic motor supports routine metal cutting, trimming, and separation work when supplied with proper air volume and pressure.
• 12,000 RPM free speed is suited for compatible abrasive wheels rated at or above the tool’s maximum operating speed.
• Aluminum housing helps keep the tool manageable for repeated use in maintenance, fabrication, and repair environments.
• Side exhaust directs air away from the front of the tool to help maintain better control around the work area.
• Extended body layout helps place the wheel farther into brackets, frames, weldments, and other areas where a shorter grinder may not reach.

Applications:

• Metal fabrication and weld shops — cutting brackets, tabs, small stock, weldments, and fabricated metal sections.
• Industrial maintenance and MRO — trimming or removing installed components, service hardware, guards, panels, and repair sections.
• Automotive, fleet, and equipment repair — cutting clamps, exhaust components, sheet metal, seized hardware, and repair material with the correct abrasive wheel.
• Production support and assembly areas — making controlled cut-off passes on fixtures, process parts, and rework stations.
• Garage and workshop metal repair — general cut-off tasks where the user has a properly sized air supply, compatible abrasive, guarding, and protective equipment.

FAQs:

• Q: What wheel size does the Cleco 25GELC-120-W3T4 use?
  A: This model is identified as the 4" wheel diameter version of the Cleco 25GELC extended horizontal cut-off grinder. Before use, confirm the wheel type, arbor or mounting hardware, guard compatibility, and RPM rating against the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Q: How is the W3T4 version different from the smaller W3T25 and W3T3 versions?
  A: The W3T4 configuration is the 4" wheel version. The W3T25 and W3T3 versions are smaller-wheel configurations, so the W3T4 is generally selected when the work requires more cut depth or wheel reach.
• Q: Why choose an extended horizontal cut-off grinder?
  A: The extended body helps reach into recessed areas while keeping the operator’s hand position farther back from the wheel. This can be useful around frames, welded structures, brackets, and mounted assemblies.
• Q: Can this grinder use any 4" abrasive wheel?
  A: No. The wheel must be compatible with the tool’s wheel type, mounting method, guard, material application, and 12,000 RPM free speed. The abrasive’s maximum operating speed must equal or exceed the tool speed.
• Q: What does side exhaust do on a cut-off grinder?
  A: Side exhaust routes air away from the front of the tool, which can help reduce air blast at the cut line and make the work area easier to control.
