The CGW 34464 is a 14-inch diameter surface grinding wheel designed for heavy stock removal with a precise finish. Constructed with AZ-Premium Blue Aluminum Oxide abrasive, this wheel features a 1-1/2 inch thickness and a 5 inch arbor/shank size, making it compatible with standard surface grinders that accept these dimensions. The AZ grain is noted for its balance of sharpness and durability, which supports efficient material removal while helping maintain control over the finished size and surface texture.
With a Type 5 wheel configuration and a grit hardness rating of H, this wheel emphasizes rigid structure and stability under high grinding loads. The combination of premium blue aluminum oxide and the wheel’s bond system is intended to provide fast, cool-cutting performance suitable for heat-sensitive materials, including alloy steels and certain mold steels that fall under typical high-speed steel hardness considerations. This helps minimize thermal distortion and grinding burn during aggressive stock removal while still achieving a precise finish.
Practical use considerations include ensuring the correct mounting and spindle RPM compatibility with your grinding equipment. The wheel is specified for a 1910 RPM operation, which informs safe setup and cooler cutting behavior when used within the recommended speed range. Packaging details indicate the product is sold as individual wheels, with two wheels per box, providing a ready quantity for shops that perform batch or recurring grinding tasks. This wheel’s construction and sizing should be matched to compatible surface grinders and workpieces, with attention to appropriate dressing, truing, and wheel conditioning to maintain performance over time.
