CGW 70132 6" X 1/2" X 1" 8S Silicon Carbide Fine Convolute Wheel

The CGW 70132 is a 6 inch diameter, 1/2 inch thick, 1 inch arbor silicon carbide convolute wheel designed for precision finishing on metal and other hard materials. This fine grade (8 – Fine) wheel is structured as a convolute wheel, which provides a continuous abrasive surface that can help produce smooth, consistent workpieces without altering the original shape or dimensions of the part being finished. The silicon carbide abrasive is selected for its hardness and capability to generate a quality surface with controlled material removal, making it suitable for applications requiring careful surface refinement. These wheels are formulated to resist heat buildup and loading, helping maintain consistent performance during extended use and reducing the risk of glazing that can compromise finish quality.

The wheel’s construction supports longer service life when working with sharp-edged materials, a common scenario in maintenance and fabrication environments. It is engineered to perform at higher RPMs, with a rated speed of 6,000 RPM, which informs operators about appropriate speed settings to achieve the desired finish while maintaining wheel integrity. The convolution pattern is designed to sustain a steady cutting action and help maintain a uniform contact surface, contributing to predictable results in deburring, blending, or finishing tasks.

This product is packaged as individual wheels and is compatible with standard mountings that accept a 1 inch arbor shank. When selecting replacement wheels, verify the arbor size on the equipment and confirm the wheel’s diameter and thickness to ensure proper fit and balance. Regular inspection for wear, proper alignment, and adherence to manufacturer guidelines for safe operation will support consistent results and longer wheel life.
