CGW’s 49017 resin-bonded grinding cone is designed for polishing and finishing metal in hard-to-reach areas. This unit features a 1-1/2 in. diameter and 2-1/2 in. thickness, with a 5/8-11 arbor/shank size compatible with many right-angle and die grinders. The grain is aluminum oxide, a common abrasive chosen for its balance of hardness and affordability, suitable for light to medium material removal and surface finishing on metal surfaces.
The cone is built to operate at higher RPMs, with a rated speed around 24,100 RPM, which supports efficient material removal in confined spaces where wheel format would be impractical. The Type 16 A16R designation identifies this as a resin-bonded, aggressive grinding cone configured for use on cylindrical or tapered profiles, offering more control in recessed or curved regions. As with resin-bonded tools, performance hinges on consistent contact pressure and appropriate wheel compatibility with the material and finish goals.
This product is packaged as an individual cone, with a 10-pack box option indicated for stocking or project batching. When selecting this abrasive, ensure the workpiece can accommodate a 5/8-11 arbor and that the application requires grinding or finishing in tight contours where a conventional wheel can’t reach. Regular inspection for wear and proper guard use are recommended to maintain safe operation and consistent results.
