CGW 34671 is an 8-inch diameter surface grinding wheel engineered for heavy stock removal with the option for precise final finishing. This wheel uses WA-46H white aluminum oxide grain, a combination that can provide improved cut rates on a range of ferrous materials while maintaining a relatively smooth finish. The wheel is sized with a 1/2 inch face thickness and a 1-1/4 inch arbor, with a Type 1 configuration and a 46 grit specification, suitable for controlled material removal and predictable edge quality.
The WA-46H formulation is chosen to balance cutting action and heat generation, which can be beneficial when grinding heat-sensitive steels or high-speed steels that respond well to white aluminum oxide. The construction is intended to support consistent grinding performance at up to 3600 RPM, enabling efficient processing on compatible surface grinding equipment. For best results, select grinding parameters that respect the wheel’s grit, hardness, and size, ensuring proper mounting and avoidance of wheel wobble or vibration that can compromise finish and wheel life.
Practical considerations include ensuring proper wheel mounting on compatible machines, verifying arbor size (1-1/4"), and using appropriate coolants or cool-down practices to manage heat input. This product is offered in a package that typically includes multiple wheels per box, aligning with maintenance schedules that require ready-to-use tooling. While no specific compatibility list is provided here, the Wheel’s Type 1, 46 grit, H hardness designation is consistent with standard surface grinding practices on materials suited to white aluminum oxide abrasives.
