The CGW 34920 is a 5-inch diameter tool and cutting wheel designed for light stock removal and general-purpose grinding. This wheel uses white aluminum oxide grain (WA) with a 60-grit specification, which supports steady cutting action on a variety of surfaces, including heat-sensitive steels. The wheel is manufactured with T11 type and a hardness grade of J, indicating a balance between firmness and cutting aggressiveness suitable for finer finishing steps and consistent performance under moderate heat buildup. Its center arbor size is 1-1/4 inches, and the overall thickness is 1-3/4 inches, making it compatible with standard grinders configured for these dimensions.
The practical design of this wheel supports easy cutting action when working on all surfaces, with particular suitability for materials that require careful heat management during grinding. Users typically choose this configuration when lighter material removal is needed and where a uniform finish is desired without excessive material disturbance. The 60-grit WA-60J formulation helps minimize glazing and clogging, contributing to predictable wear and reuse cycles, especially in applications involving a range of metals.
Packaged in convenient quantities, this wheel is intended for use in facility maintenance environments where consistent performance and compatibility with standard 1-1/4" arbor grinders are important. For best results, verify your grinder’s arbor size, wheel thickness, and mounting hardware before installation, and ensure proper wheel guards and personal protective equipment are in place during operation.
