CGW 34213 is a 7 inch diameter ceramic surface grinding wheel designed for heavy stock removal with a precise finish. This wheel features a 7" x 1/2" x 1-1/4" form factor with a Type 1 profile and a 60 grit AS3 ceramic grain, rated for up to 3760 RPM. The K hardness designation indicates a balance of strength and wear resistance suitable for continuous stock removal on harder materials, while the ceramic composition supports rapid material removal and a submicron crystal structure that continually fractures to form fresh grinding points. These characteristics contribute to efficient grinding with reduced dressing frequency, helping to maintain consistent performance over time.
In practice, the wheel’s ceramic AS3 grain is engineered to grind hard steels and alloys with a focus on producing clean, controlled finishes on heavy stock removal tasks. Operators should consider the wheel’s size, bore, and RPM rating to ensure compatibility with grinding machines and guards, as well as appropriate workholding and safety procedures for surface grinding operations. Proper dressing and truing are still recommended to maintain dimensional accuracy and surface quality, given the wheel’s abrasive properties and the objective of achieving precise finishes on demanding workpieces.
Practical compatibility notes include using the 1-1/4" arbor/shank size for machines that accommodate this dimension, and ensuring the grinding setup aligns with the wheel’s Type 1 profile and 60-grit specification for the intended material removal rate and finish quality. Package information indicates the wheel is available individually, with packaging suitable for facility maintenance workflows that rely on standard-size, replaceable grinding components.
