CGW 34029 20" X 2" X 10" T1 83A-60J 60-Grit White Aluminum Oxide Surface Grinding Wheel

The CGW 34029 is a high-performance surface grinding wheel designed for heavy stock removal with a precise finish. With a 20" diameter, 2" thickness, and a 10" arbor, this wheel is sized for compatible grinding machines that accept large-diameter wheels, enabling efficient material removal while maintaining dimensional accuracy. The wheel features a 83A Grade White Aluminum Oxide bond and a 60 grit texture, offering a balance between cutting action and surface finish. The T1 type designation indicates a truncated, more compact wheel shape that supports stable grinding during high-load operations.

Construction and distinguishing features center on its white aluminum oxide abrasive, favored for grinding heat-sensitive steels and high-speed steels due to favorable wear characteristics and cutting action. The 60-grit size provides a relatively aggressive cut suitable for light to moderate stock removal, with a finish appropriate for subsequent finishing steps. The rated operating speed and overall geometry are aligned with standard grinding practice for large-diameter wheels, aiding consistent performance across multiple passes.

Practical considerations for use include ensuring proper mounting on compatible tool heads and verifying arbor size (10 inches is the shank length) and compatibility with the machine’s speed rating. This wheel is packaged as single units, with two units per box, supporting procurement efficiency for shop floor needs. Proper dressing and truing are recommended to maintain wheel geometry and cutting efficiency over time. Always follow machine manufacturer guidelines and PPE requirements during grinding operations to manage heat generation and potential wheel loading.
