The CGW 38512 is a 7-inch bench and pedestal grinding wheel designed for general stock removal, sharpening, deburring, and shaping across a variety of non-ferrous and harder materials. This wheel uses Green Silicon Carbide (GC) grain, which is known for its hardness and ability to cut non-ferrous metals, carbide, granite, ceramic, and chrome with precision. The wheel features a 1-inch arbor and a 100-grit size, offering a balance between material removal and surface finish suitable for precise grinding tasks on both stationary bench and pedestal machines.
Constructed as a Type 1 wheel with an I-grade hardness, the CGW38512 is rated for up to 3,760 RPM, aligning with common high-speed tool grinders and ensuring appropriate performance when paired with compatible grinding equipment. The 7" diameter and 3/4" thickness provide a stable cutting surface for controlled grinding operations, reducing chatter and improving consistency on workpieces. This wheel is intended for use on non-ferrous materials and other tough substrates, with the packaging indicating a single piece per package, suitable for individual jobs or replacement in maintenance workflows.
When selecting this wheel, verify that your grinder’s arbor matches the 1-inch shank and that the machine’s speed does not exceed the wheel’s maximum RPM. Proper mounting, truing, and dressing are essential to achieve the intended surface finish and prolong wheel life.
