The CGW 34705 is an 8 inch diameter surface grinding wheel designed for heavy stock removal with the ability to deliver a precise finish and controlled size. This wheel is manufactured with GC (silicon carbide) abrasive grains, which are well-suited for non-ferrous metals, carbide, granite, ceramic, and chrome. The wheel’s Type 5 designation indicates a straight configuration with a through-hole mounting compatible with standard grinding equipment, and it is rated for up to 3600 RPM to match typical high-speed grinders used in material removal applications. The 100-grit surface provides a balance between material removal rate and surface finish quality, suitable for applications that require efficient stock reduction while maintaining dimensional accuracy.
Constructed as a lightweight yet durable wheel, it features an 8" diameter, 1" thickness, and a 1-1/4" arbor/shank size, aligning with common shop and production floor grinders. The GC-100I grade indicates a specific hardness and grain concentration designed for demanding jobs, where consistent grit exposure and wheel integrity matter for predictable results. This wheel is packaged as individual units with a box quantity of 10, supporting both single-workpiece operations and small-to-medium production runs. When selecting this wheel, verify compatibility with your grinder’s arbor size and maximum RPM, and ensure appropriate wheel guards and mounting hardware are used to maintain safe, efficient operation.
