The CGW 35044 8" X 3/4" X 1-1/4" T1 A-46M 46-Grit Brown Aluminum Oxide Bench & Pedestal Grinding Wheel is designed for general stock removal, sharpening, deburring, and shaping in bench and pedestal grinding applications. This wheel uses brown aluminum oxide as the grain, a common choice for a broad range of ferrous metals and many non-ferrous materials, providing a balance of cut rate and durability for routine grinding tasks.
Constructed with an 8" diameter, 3/4" thickness, and a 1-1/4" arbor/shank size, the wheel is set up for standard bench and pedestal grinders operating at 3600 RPM. The A-46M designation indicates a medium-hard grade appropriate for general purpose grinding where consistent performance and grind quality are required across varied workloads. The 46-grit finish offers a coarse-to-medium aggressiveness that is suitable for surface material removal without excessive heat buildup when used with appropriate dressing and cooling practices.
When selecting this wheel, ensure compatibility with your grinder’s arbor size and RPM rating, and follow the manufacturer’s guidelines for mounting, dressing, and balancing to maintain performance and prevent wheel damage. This wheel is sold as a single unit, appropriate for users performing routine stock removal, sharpening, deburring, and shaping tasks on a variety of materials commonly encountered in facility maintenance and metalworking settings.
