The CGW 38121 is a 6 inch diameter bench and pedestal grinding wheel designed for general stock removal, sharpening, deburring, and shaping tasks in light to moderate grinding work. Built with premium AZ-36K blue aluminum oxide grain, this wheel emphasizes sharpness and durable cutting action, making it suitable for workloads that require fast material removal while minimizing heat buildup that can affect heat-sensitive alloys.
Constructed with a 1 inch thickness and a 1 inch arbor/shank size, the wheel features a Type 1 configuration and a K-grade hardness to balance cutting performance with wheel life. The AZ premium grain is noted for its combination of aggressiveness and durability, with properties described as offering exceptionally fast and cool cutting characteristics. This makes it a practical choice for grinding both alloy steels and mold steels, particularly when high-speed operations approach 58 RC in hardness.
When selecting and using this wheel, confirm compatibility with your grinder’s arbor size and RPM rating. The specified RPM is 4456, which should be matched to your equipment to avoid wheel failure. The packaging is listed as an individual unit, suitable for stocking in maintenance and shop environments where a reliable, general-purpose wheel is needed for routine grinding tasks.
