CGW 34333 7" X 1/2" X 1-1/4" T1 AZ-46H12 Porous 46-Grit Premium Blue Aluminum Oxide Surface Grinding Wheel is designed for precision material removal on hard metals and mold steels while managing heat generated during grinding. The wheel’s AZ Premium Blue Aluminum Oxide grain is paired with a porous bond, which supports rapid stock removal with a cooler cut, helping to reduce thermal damage on heat-sensitive alloys. This combination typically yields a sharp cutting action and improved durability relative to standard WA and PA grains, making it a suitable option for shops requiring consistent finish quality at higher speeds.
Engineered to meet demanding surface-grinding needs, this wheel features a 7-inch diameter, 1/2-inch face thickness, and a 1-1/4-inch arbor size. With a hardness rating of H and an 46 grit size, it is intended for aggressive material removal while maintaining control over finish quality. Operating at up to 3760 RPM, the wheel is delivered in a ready-to-use form for industrial grinding applications. The 10-pack packaging option supports multiple machines or staggered usage in busy maintenance environments.
Practically, this wheel is well-suited for heavy stock removal on alloy steels and mold steels, especially when heat buildup is a concern. It is important to verify machine compatibility with the 1-1/4" arbor and ensure appropriate safety measures are in place, including proper guard clearance and personal protective equipment during operation. The listed dimensions and RPM are critical for selecting the correct wheel for your grinder and maintaining optimal performance and wheel life.
