CGW 38507 6" X 1" X 1" T1 GC-60I 60-Grit Green Silicon Carbide Bench & Pedestal Grinding Wheel

CGW 38507 is a 6 inch by 1 inch by 1 inch T1 GC-60I green silicon carbide bench and pedestal grinding wheel, designed for general stock removal, sharpening, deburring, and shaping tasks on non-ferrous metals, carbide, granite, ceramic, and chrome. The wheel’s GC green silicon carbide formulation provides abrasive properties suitable for light to moderate material removal and finishing work, making it a practical option for workshop grinding across a variety of project materials. Its T1 profile and 60-grit size are chosen to balance material removal rate with surface finish, while the I hardness designation indicates a relatively firm wheel that retains shape during use. The wheel is sized for compatibility with common bench and pedestal grinders, featuring a 6 inch diameter, 1 inch thickness, and a 1 inch arbor/shank, and is rated for up to 4456 RPM, which aligns with many standard grinder speeds. This product is sold as a single piece, suitable for replacement needs where a standard 6" wheel is required.

Using the CGW GC-60I wheel in appropriate grinding tasks can support efficient stock removal on non-ferrous materials and harder substrates like carbide and granite, while also enabling deburring and shaping finishes. When selecting a wheel, ensure the grinder’s arbor matches the 1" shank and that the machine’s RPM does not exceed the wheel’s rated 4456 RPM. Regular inspection for wear and cracks, proper mounting, and compatibility with wheel guards and safety equipment are recommended to maintain safe operation and consistent results.
