CGW 34436 12" X 2" X 5" T7 AZ-46H 46-Grit Premium Blue Aluminum Oxide Surface Grinding Wheel is designed for heavy stock removal while delivering a precise finish on grinding applications. The wheel utilizes AZ Premium Blue Aluminum Oxide grain, which combines sharpness and durability to support faster material removal with control over the size and surface finish. Its T7 type bond is formulated to balance durability with efficient cutting action, enabling consistent performance across longer cycles and demanding workloads. Coupled with a hardness rating of H, the wheel is constructed to maintain shape and cutting geometry under typical shop conditions, contributing to repeatable results on hardened steels and other challenging substrates.
This wheel is specified for surface grinding tasks where heat management and material integrity are important. The 12" diameter, 2" width, and 5" arbor/shank dimension define its compatibility with compatible grinding machines and setup configurations, while the 46-grit sizing targets a balance between material removal rate and surface finish quality. The combination of grain and bond technology aims to provide an effective cutting experience with reduced glazing and longer wheel life, which can translate to lower wheel changes during productive grinding cycles.
For best results, ensure the wheel is mounted according to OEM guidelines and guarded properly during operation. Proper dressing and truing practices help maintain the intended wheel geometry and finish outcomes. The packaging indicates a single-wheel per box arrangement, suitable for facility maintenance and production environments where reliable, consistent grinding performance is required.
