The CGW 34426 12" X 1" X 5" T1 AZ-60K 60-Grit Premium Blue Aluminum Oxide Surface Grinding Wheel is designed for heavy stock removal while delivering a precise finish. This wheel utilizes AZ Premium Blue Aluminum Oxide grain with a K-hardness bond, optimized to balance sharpness and durability for demanding grinding tasks. The 12" diameter, 1" thickness, and 5" arbor/shank size are configured to fit compatible high-speed surface grinders, enabling efficient material removal and a controlled grind on tough metals.
What sets this wheel apart is its premium grain and bond technology, engineered to provide fast, cool cutting characteristics. This makes it well-suited for grinding heat-sensitive alloys and mold steels, including high-speed steels operating under 58 Rockwell C. The AZ-60K formulation is stated to offer durability and sharpness that outperform some standard aluminum oxide options, contributing to a predictable grind with reduced glazing and longer wheel life under appropriate use conditions.
When selecting this wheel, consider its specifications: AZ Premium Blue Aluminum Oxide grain, 60 grit, T1 type with a K hardness, and a rated RPM of 2220. It is packaged as Each with a box quantity of 2. This product is appropriate for facility maintenance environments where precision surface grinding is required on a variety of metals, and where maintaining dimensional accuracy and surface finish is important. Ensure compatible grinding equipment accepts a 12" diameter, 1" thick, and 5" arbor wheel, and follow standard safety and dressing practices to maintain wheel performance over time.
