The CGW 34006 is a high-performance surface grinding wheel designed for heavy stock removal with a precise finish. This wheel features a 20" diameter, 1" thickness, and an 8" arbor hole, making it suitable for compatible surface grinding machines requiring a robust 83A white aluminum oxide grain structure. The 46-grit size combines aggressive material removal with the ability to achieve a controlled surface texture, while the H hardness rating indicates relative rigidity and durability during use. The 83A white aluminum oxide formulation is known for its balance of toughness and sharpness, which helps maintain cutting action when grinding heat-sensitive steels and other alloy materials. By selecting a wheel with these specifications, operators can pursue a consistent finish and predictable grinding behavior across a range of workpiece geometries.
Practical use of this wheel includes heavy stock removal where a precise final dimension is critical, as well as general-purpose grinding tasks where a moderate aggressiveness is acceptable. The wheel is designed to provide easy cutting action across all surfaces, assisting in efficient material removal while helping to manage heat buildup on sensitive steels. When planning maintenance and setup, ensure the wheel is mounted on compatible grinding equipment and matched to the machine’s RPM rating to avoid overspeed conditions. Diameter and arbor compatibility, along with the defined grain and grit, influence the achievable surface finish and required feed rates, so refer to machine guidelines and workpiece requirements for best results.
Package considerations indicate a package size of three wheels per box, with each wheel packaged individually inside the outbound carton. Handling and inspection prior to installation help ensure the wheel is free from cracks, chips, or damage that could affect performance or safety during operation.
