CGW 38523 10" X 1-1/2" X 1-1/4" T1 GC-80I 80-Grit Green Silicon Carbide Bench & Pedestal Grinding Wheel

The CGW 38523 bench and pedestal grinding wheel is a 10 inch diameter, 1-1/2 inch thick wheel designed for general stock removal, sharpening, deburring, and shaping tasks. It is built with GC-80I green silicon carbide abrasive, a grain known for its ability to cut non-ferrous metals, carbide, granite, ceramic, and chrome materials efficiently. This wheel is intended for use on bench and pedestal grinders, providing a balanced performance for routine material removal and finishing work in maintenance and fabrication settings.

Constructed as a Type 1 wheel with an arbor size of 1-1/4 inches and a maximum operating speed of 2483 RPM, it is suited to standard grinding configurations that require a rigid, consistent cutting edge. The 80-grit specification offers a finer scratch pattern suitable for deburring and shaping tasks while maintaining material removal efficiency. As with all silicon carbide wheels, compatibility with non-ferrous metals and hard materials should be considered to ensure appropriate wheel/workpiece interaction and to prevent glazing or grain embedment.

For ordering and installation consistency, this wheel is provided unit-by-unit (Package Size: Each). When selecting a wheel, verify that the grinder’s arbor matches the 1-1/4 inch shank size and that the RPM rating aligns with your equipment’s speed to avoid wheel failure. CGW’s 10" x 1-1/2" x 1-1/4" GC-80I wheel is suitable for a range of routine grinding tasks on non-ferrous metals and hard materials, offering predictable performance for maintenance, fabrication, and shop-floor finishing activities.
