The CGW 38047 is a bench and pedestal grinding wheel designed for general stock removal, sharpening, deburring, and shaping in industrial maintenance and fabrication settings. This wheel features a 12-inch diameter, 2-inch dynamic width, and a 1-1/2 inch arbor size, making it compatible with common bench and pedestal grinders used in fabrication shops and maintenance departments. It is categorized as a straight wheel with a 36-grit Brown Aluminum Oxide (A-36M) grain, a standard choice for robust material removal tasks on a variety of ferrous and non-ferrous metals.
Constructed to balance performance with durability, the wheel’s A-36M brown aluminum oxide abrasive is a widely used grain known for its versatility in heavy-duty applications. The O-grade hardness designation indicates a wheel that maintains adequate cutting action under typical shop workloads while resisting premature loading. Operating at up to 2220 RPM, this wheel is suitable for machines that run within that speed range, ensuring effective material removal without compromising wheel integrity when used within its specified limits.
When selecting a wheel for bench or pedestal grinding, compatibility with your grinder’s spindle size and RPM is essential. This CGW wheel is packaged as a single piece per package and is intended for use in general-purpose grinding tasks, including roughing, shaping, and edge work. Proper mounting, wheel guards, and personal protective equipment should be used per standard shop practices to maximize safety and performance.
