The CGW 34345 is a 7 inch diameter surface grinding wheel designed for heavy stock removal with a precise finish. This wheel uses AZ-46K premium blue aluminum oxide grain, which is selected for applications requiring both sharpness and durability. Its Type 5 form and 46-grit size are tailored for consistent material removal and a controlled edge, while the K hardness (bond) supports stable performance under demanding grinding conditions. The wheel’s dimensions are 7" diameter, 1" thickness, and a 1-1/4" arbor/shank, making it compatible with standard surface grinding machines that accommodate these specifications.
The AZ premium grain is noted for fast, cool cutting, which helps manage heat generation during grinding of heat-sensitive alloys and mold steels classified under high-speed steels above 58 RC. This characteristic, combined with the wheel’s durable bond, aims to balance aggressive material removal with the ability to maintain dimensional stability and surface finish. When selecting this wheel, consider the intended workpiece material, required removal rate, and the machine’s RPM compatibility to ensure safe and effective operation at the listed speed of 3760 RPM. The product comes in packaging sized to individual pieces (Package Size: Each) and is commonly available in boxes of 10, aligning with maintenance stocking practices for facility maintenance and metalworking environments.
