The CGW 38044 is a 12-inch bench and pedestal grinding wheel designed for general stock removal, sharpening, deburring, and shaping tasks in industrial settings. This wheel features brown aluminum oxide grain (A-60M) with a medium grain that balances material removal with surface finish, making it a versatile option for routine grinding on ferrous and some non-ferrous metals.
Constructed as a Type 1 wheel with a 12" diameter, 1-1/2" thickness, and a 1-1/4" arbor size, it is suitable for use on standard bench and pedestal grinders meeting these mounting specifications. The M-grade hardness indicates a balance between toughness and wear resistance, supporting consistent performance under typical workloads. A maximum operating speed of 2220 RPM is specified for this wheel, so users should ensure their grinding equipment matches or exceeds this rating and observe all safety guidelines for speed-rated wheels.
Users should expect a general-purpose wheel that handles heavy-duty grinding tasks with reliable material removal while maintaining reasonable edge stability. When selecting this wheel, verify compatibility with the grinder’s arbor and mounting dimensions, and follow proper mounting and dressing procedures to maintain wheel performance. Package size is indicated as each, aligned with common procurement practices for individual wheel replacements.
