The CGW 34948 is a 6" diameter aluminum oxide tool and cutting wheel designed for light stock removal and general purpose grinding tasks. Its WA-46K formulation uses white aluminum oxide to provide a predictable, fine-grain cutting action suitable for a range of materials while maintaining a consistent finish on heat-sensitive steels and other easily ground substrates. The wheel’s 1" thickness and 4" arbor/shank size are standard for compatible grinders and cutoff tools commonly used in maintenance, fabrication, and workshop settings.
Constructed with a T50 type rating, the wheel promotes a firm, sustained contact with the workpiece, contributing to controlled material removal and reliable performance during extended grinding sessions. The 46-grit size offers a balance between material removal rate and surface finish, making it suitable for light stock removal and general-purpose operations where a smooth cut is beneficial. This wheel is appropriate for applications that require easier cutting action on a variety of surfaces, including heat-sensitive steels, where aggressive grinding could introduce unwanted heat buildup.
For practical use, ensure the wheel is mounted on compatible equipment that accepts a 4" arbor with the specified thickness, and verify RPM requirements against the grinder’s specifications. Packaging is listed as a single wheel per item, with box quantities of 10 when purchasing multiple units. Accurate matching of the wheel to the job requirements—such as material hardness, desired finish, and cut rate—will help optimize performance and prolong wheel life.
