The CGW 35679 is a 7 inch diameter, 1/8 inch thick, 7/8 inch arbor aluminum oxide wheel designed for light grinding and stock removal on pipelines and similar profiles. With a 24-grit, A24-T Type 27 configuration, the wheel presents a hard T-grade bond that supports faster material removal while maintaining wheel life. This combination is suited for applications requiring rapid disruption of surface material on metal workpieces, notably in pipeline preparation and general fabrication where a flat but aggressive grinding action is needed.
The wheel’s construction features aluminum oxide abrasive grains bonded to a rigid matrix to sustain consistent cutting performance under heavy stock removal demands. The Type 27 profile provides a depressed center and helps the wheel maintain contact on contoured surfaces, offering a balance between aggressiveness and control. The 8500 RPM rating (as specified) indicates suitability for high-speed tooling commonly found in industrial grinding operations, assuming compatible equipment and safety practices are followed.
Practical considerations include selecting appropriate safety equipment for grinding operations and ensuring the wheel is mounted to a compatible grinder with a 7/8 inch arbor. The package is listed as individually packaged with a box quantity of 25, which is relevant for stocking and reordering, especially in facilities handling frequent replacement of grinding wheels. This data helps buyers confirm compatibility with their machines and workflow without extrapolating beyond the provided construction and usage context.
