The CGW 34609 is a 7-inch surface grinding wheel designed for heavy stock removal with the capability to reach precise finish and size requirements. Built around a 1/4-inch thickness and a 1-1/4 inch arbor, this wheel employs WA - white aluminum oxide abrasive for reliable performance on a variety of metals. The WA composition is well-suited for reducing heat buildup and improving efficiency on steels that are easy to grind, while maintaining controllable cut action during surface grinding tasks.
With a K-grade hardness and 120-grit sizing, the wheel is intended for general purpose use where easy cutting action is desirable on all surfaces. The 1-type designation indicates a standard, single-layer wheel configuration suitable for common surface grinding applications. The wheel is rated to operate at 3760 RPM, which defines its spinning speed envelope and should be matched to compatible equipment and safe operating practices. Each package contains ten units, making it practical for shops that require multiple wheels for ongoing grinding tasks or for stocking adjacent machines.
Practical considerations when selecting this wheel include ensuring proper wheel mounting and balance on compatible surface grinders, confirming the arbor size of 1-1/4 inches fits the machine spindle, and verifying that the workpiece material and grinding parameters align with 120-grit WA white aluminum oxide characteristics. This wheel is appropriate for use on heat-sensitive steels and steels that respond well to easy cutting action, supporting tasks that demand smooth, controlled stock removal while achieving a consistent surface finish. Regular inspection for wear, speed rating compliance, and correct dressing will help maintain predictable performance.
