The CGW 38529 bench and pedestal grinding wheel is a 12 inch diameter, 1-1/2 inch thick wheel with a 1-1/4 inch arbor. It is formulated with green silicon carbide grain (GC) and is rated at 80 grit, with a hardness designation of I. Designed for general stock removal, sharpening, deburring, and shaping, this wheel is suitable for non-ferrous materials and can be used on carbide, granite, ceramic, and chrome workpieces. The wheel runs at up to 2220 RPM, making it compatible with standard bench and pedestal grinders within that speed range.
This CGW wheel is constructed as a T1 type, which corresponds to a particular wheel body style and mounting compatibility used in many bench and pedestal grinder configurations. The 80-grit green silicon carbide composition provides a balance of material removal rate and surface finish, appropriate for distressed or hardened workpieces that require careful shaping without excessive heat buildup. The product is sold as a single unit (package size: each). Understanding the grain, diameter, thickness, and arbor size helps ensure correct fitment with your grinder and your specific material removal task.
When selecting a wheel, verify that your grinder’s arbor matches the 1-1/4 inch shank and that the RPM rating is suitable for the maximum speed of your machine. Proper wheel mounting and guarding practices should be followed per standard shop safety guidelines to ensure safe operation and wheel integrity during use.
