CGW 38515 7" X 1" X 1" T1 GC-100I 100-Grit Green Silicon Carbide Bench & Pedestal Grinding Wheel

CGW 38515 7" x 1" x 1" T1 GC-100I 100-Grit Green Silicon Carbide Bench & Pedestal Grinding Wheel is designed for general stock removal, sharpening, deburring, and shaping on non-ferrous metals and harder materials. The wheel employs green silicon carbide grain (GC) for effective material cut and a 100-grit size to balance removal rate with finer finishing. The T1 type and 1-inch arbor/shank size indicate it is configured for common bench and pedestal grinders used in metalworking and maintenance environments. With a 7-inch diameter, 1-inch thickness, and a robust RPM rating, this wheel is suitable for routine grinding tasks that require precise control and consistent cut across metalworking, fabrication, and tool repair work.

The wheel’s construction aligns with CGW’s bench and pedestal wheel design, optimized for general stock removal and finishing across a variety of harder substrates such as carbide, granite, ceramic, and chrome surfaces. The 100-grit grade provides a relatively fine abrasive surface that helps achieve smoother edges while maintaining efficient material removal. The 1" arbor size ensures compatibility with standard grinders, and the wheel is supplied as a single piece suitable for quick setup and replacement in shop or maintenance bays. Practical considerations include ensuring correct mounting to maintain balance and avoiding operation beyond the wheel’s rated RPM to prevent breakage or wheel damage.

This product is intended for bench and pedestal grinding applications within facility maintenance environments. It should be installed and used according to standard safety practices for grinding wheels, including proper guarding and PPE. The description reflects the provided specifications, including diameter, thickness, arbor size, grain type, grit, and rated RPM, which influence compatibility with grinders and the finish achievable on target materials.
