The CGW 70130 Silicon Carbide Fine Convolute Wheel is a 6-inch diameter, 1/2-inch thick wheel with a 1-inch arbor. Designed for surface refinement, this convolute wheel achieves smooth, finished work surfaces without altering the part’s dimensions. The wheel’s 7S grade indicates a fine abrasive, suitable for precision material removal and finishing tasks on harder substrates where a delicate touch is required.
Constructed to handle sharp edges, CGW convolute wheels are formulated to deliver long service life even when in contact with challenging contours. They resist excessive heat buildup and loading, helping maintain a consistent cutting action and reducing glazing or clogging during extended work sessions. This makes the wheel appropriate for applications where controlled material removal and a clean finish are essential, such as deburring and fine finishing on metal or hard composite surfaces.
When selecting tooling, ensure compatibility with a 1-inch arbor and verify that your grinder or tool setup can safely accommodate a 6-inch wheel rotating at up to 6000 RPM. Use appropriate PPE and follow standard wheel mounting practices to minimize vibration and ensure stable operation. Since this description reflects the supplied product data, any performance outcomes depend on actual usage conditions and equipment configuration.
