CGW 34657 7" x 1" x 1-1/4" T5 GC-100I green silicon carbide surface grinding wheel is designed for heavy stock removal with a precise finish. This wheel employs GC-grade silicon carbide abrasive, configured in a 7-inch diameter, 1-inch thickness, and 1-1/4-inch arbor/shank size. The T5 configuration and Grade I hardness indicate a balance between aggressiveness and wheel life suitable for controlled material removal and fine-tuning of part dimensions. The distinctive green silicon carbide composition is well-suited for non-ferrous metals and harder materials such as carbide, granite, ceramic, and chrome, enabling versatile performance across challenging applications.
This wheel is constructed to support surface grinding operations where both material removal rate and finish quality matter. The 100-grit specification provides a relatively fine texture for achieving consistent contact with workpieces while maintaining enough aggression to reach size and flatness requirements. The wheel is rated for up to 3760 RPM, which informs compatible spindle speeds and safety practices. Packaging details indicate a unit is supplied as an individual wheel, with a box quantity of 10, suitable for inventory planning and replacement scheduling in maintenance environments.
When selecting this wheel, verify the workpiece material compatibility (notably non-ferrous metals and harder substrates) and ensure the grinder tooling matches the 1-1/4" arbor size. Proper dressing and truing procedures are recommended to maintain wheel geometry and grinding efficiency. Matching wheel size and RPM ratings to the specific grinding machine is essential for safe operation and achieving the intended surface finish and dimensional control.
