The CGW 38111 is a 6-inch diameter bench and pedestal grinding wheel designed for general material removal, sharpening, deburring, and shaping tasks in facility maintenance environments. This wheel uses AZ-36K premium blue aluminum oxide grain, chosen for a balance of sharpness and durability, which helps maintain effective cutting performance across a range of metals while managing heat generation during grinding.
Constructed with a 1-inch arbor and a thickness of 3/4 inch, the wheel features a K-hardness rating to support stable performance under typical grinding pressures. The combination of premium grain and bond chemistry contributes to fast, cool cutting characteristics, making it suitable for grinding heat-sensitive alloys and mold steels and offering a productivity advantage in shop settings where consistent wheel life matters. Its dimensions are compatible with standard 6-inch bench and pedestal grinders commonly found in maintenance facilities.
When selecting this wheel, users should consider the material type and required finish, as AZ-36K provides a blend of aggressiveness and durability ideal for stock removal, sharpening, and shaping tasks. Proper mounting using the 1-inch arbor and adherence to manufacturer safety and grinder RPM guidelines (4456 RPM as indicated by the wheel’s rating) will ensure stable operation and predictable results. This product is packaged as a single wheel per box, suitable for replacement in routine maintenance workflows where consistent wheel performance is essential.
