CGW 36231 is a 6-inch diameter, 1/4-inch thick, 7/8-inch arbor grinding wheel designed for fast, efficient stock removal on aluminum with an A24-N Type 27 profile. The wheel uses aluminum oxide grain paired with a soft N-grade bond, a combination that supports aggressive material removal while maintaining wheel life for this grit and bond class. Its Type 27 depressed center enables use on angle grinders for applications that require access to edges and contours, particularly when grinding on aluminum where control and balance are important.
The 24-grit specification offers a coarse abrasive action suitable for rapid material removal and initial shaping, making this wheel well-suited for tasks such as deburring, blending, and contour work on aluminum components. The combination of grain type, bond hardness, and the wheel’s geometry is designed to optimize stock removal relative to wheel wear, which can help maintain productive workflow in fabrication and maintenance environments. The wheel is rated for up to 10,200 RPM, aligning with common power tool specifications for right-angle grinders and similar equipment, and should be used with appropriate guards and safety practices consistent with industrial grinding operations.
When selecting this wheel, verify compatibility with your grinder’s arbor size (7/8 inch) and ensure the mounting method matches the tool requirements. Packaging is handled as individual wheels in box quantities of 25, facilitating batch purchases for workshop inventory. Care should be taken to inspect the wheel for damage before mounting and to follow standard safe grinding procedures on aluminum to minimize heat buildup and surface discoloration.
