The CGW 38022 is an 8 inch bench and pedestal grinding wheel designed for general stock removal, sharpening, deburring, and shaping tasks. It uses brown aluminum oxide (A-36O) grain, a common and versatile abrasive material well-suited for a wide range of metals, making it a practical choice for shop floors that require reliable material removal and surface finishing capabilities.
Constructed as a Type 1 wheel with a 1 inch thickness and a 1-1/4 inch arbor/shank, this wheel runs at 3600 RPM and is sized for compatibility with standard bench and pedestal grinding machines. The 36-grit specification provides a balance between aggressive material removal and the ability to achieve intermediate surface finishes, making it appropriate for initial shaping and deburring operations on ferrous and non-ferrous metals alike. Packaging is straightforward, with one wheel per package, suitable for maintenance inventories and replacement scheduling.
When selecting this wheel, ensure your grinder’s arbor size and wheel dimensions match 1-1/4 inch shank and 8 inch diameter, and verify operating speed does not exceed the wheel’s rated RPM. Regular inspection for wear and proper mounting alignment will help maintain performance and safety. This wheel is categorized for facility maintenance use and is intended for general-purpose grinding applications where brown aluminum oxide is appropriate for the workpiece material and finish requirements.
