The CGW 48032 is a 7-inch diameter fiber disc designed for grinding and finishing metal surfaces. Its 7/8-inch arbor size suits standard tooling setups, making it a straightforward replacement in compatible grinders. The disc uses a heavy-duty vulcanized fiber backing that supports a sharp, heat-treated aluminum oxide grain, providing robust stock removal with a cool-cutting performance on steel. This combination aims to balance productive material removal with reduced heat buildup, which can help minimize workpiece discoloration and warping during longer sessions.
Construction details indicate the grain is electrostatically coated onto the backing to promote even wear and consistent contact with the work surface. The 36-grit sizing targets aggressive material removal while maintaining relatively smoother finishes compared to finer grits. The disc is supplied in a box quantity of 25, making it convenient for stocking and recurring use in maintenance or fabrication environments where metal finishing is routine.
When selecting this disc, verify compatibility with your grinder’s RPM and mounting system to ensure safe operation at up to 8600 RPM. Maintain appropriate wheel speed and inspect the fiber backing for wear or damage before use. This product is categorized under Facility Maintenance and is suitable for use on steel surfaces where aggressive grinding and deburring are required, with the typical caveats of disc-based finishing: always adhere to safety practices and equipment guidelines during operation.
