CGW 34638 is a 7 inch diameter, 3/4 inch thick surface grinding wheel designed for general purpose and light stock removal with precise finish control. This wheel features a T5 type bond and a WA-46J 46-grit white aluminum oxide grain, selected for its ability to cut smoothly on heat-sensitive steels and high-speed steels. The combination of white aluminum oxide grain and a rigid wheel body supports consistent material removal and a fine finish on a range of workpiece materials, making it suitable for high-precision surface grinding tasks where heat generation and wheel wear must be managed.
Constructed with a 1-1/4 inch arbor, this wheel is intended for compatible surface grinding equipment that accepts that shank size, and its WA-46J grain is chosen to balance cutting action with reliability under typical shop conditions. The 46-grit specification indicates a relatively fine abrasive action, which helps achieve a controlled surface texture on finished parts. The J grade denotes a specific hardness level in the CGW line, affecting how the wheel maintains form and resists loading during grinding operations.
This wheel is packaged in a way suitable for stocking in facility maintenance or metalworking inventories, with a package size of per-unit packaging and box quantities of 10. When selecting grinding wheels, confirm compatibility with your grinder’s spindle and safe RPM limits; this wheel is rated at 3760 RPM to match common industrial grinders while maintaining performance characteristics. For best results, use with appropriate guards and cooling as part of standard grinding practices, and inspect the wheel for cracks or damage before mounting.
