CGW 34327 7" X 1/2" X 1-1/4" T1 AZ-60L 60-Grit Premium Blue Aluminum Oxide Surface Grinding Wheel

The CGW 34327 is a 7-inch diameter surface grinding wheel designed for heavy stock removal while delivering a precise finish. Built with AZ - Premium Blue Aluminum Oxide grain, this wheel combines sharpness and durability to handle demanding grinding tasks on metals that require controlled stock removal and dimensional accuracy. The 60-grit designation provides a balance between material removal rate and a refined surface, suitable for applications where a smooth, accurate surface is essential.

Constructed with an 1/2-inch thickness and a 1-1/4-inch arbor/shank compatibility, this wheel is categorized as Type 1 with a hard (H) grade, indicating a rigid bond that helps maintain shape and precision during high-speed grinding. The premium grain/bond technology is noted to offer fast, cool cutting characteristics, which is particularly advantageous when working with heat-sensitive alloys and mold steels (including high-speed steels under 58 RC). The result is efficient grinding performance with reduced thermal impact on the workpiece, supporting tighter tolerances and longer tool life in precision machining and moldmaking environments.

For practical use, this wheel is intended for surface grinding operations where both rapid material removal and precise size control are required. Typical considerations include monitoring cooling and wheel wear to sustain consistent results, especially when grinding reactive or heat-sensitive materials. The wheel is produced in a quantity-appropriate packaging configuration and sized to fit compatible grinders that accept a 1-1/4
