The CGW 35612 grinding wheel is a 4-1/2 inch diameter wheel designed for general purpose material removal on portable grinders. It features a 1/8 inch thickness and a 7/8 inch arbor, with a Type 27, 24-grit configuration to provide a balance of stock removal and surface finish for aluminum oxide applications. The wheel utilizes high-quality aluminum oxide grain and an R-grade bond, which contributes to longer wheel life and consistent performance under moderate grinding loads.
This wheel is suited for more aggressive material removal on flat or slightly contoured surfaces, making it useful for deburring, grinding welds, and finishing metal components. When selecting this wheel, users should consider the wheel’s R-grade hardness and 24-grit specification, which influence cut rate, heat generation, and the finish produced on aluminum oxide workpieces. Proper guarding, appropriate wheel speed, and compatible grinder arbor requirements should be observed to maintain safe operation and achieve predictable results.
Specific compatibility and maintenance details are tied to the stated size: 4.5 turn diameter, 1/8 inch thickness, and 7/8 inch arbor. Package handling notes indicate the wheel is sold as individual items, with 25 wheels per box, which may affect stocking and replacement planning in maintenance workflows. Proper storage in a clean, dry environment helps preserve abrasive performance over time.
