The CGW 58034 is a 12" x 1" x 3" surface grinding wheel designed for high-precision material removal and finishing on tool steel and hard alloys. This wheel features PA-46J pink aluminum oxide grains, selected for stable performance during heavy stock removal while helping to maintain a controlled, cool cut on heat-sensitive materials. Its 46-grit size provides a balance between material removal rate and a fine edge finish, making it suitable for tasks that require both speed and dimensional accuracy.
Constructed with a Type 1 wheel configuration and an arbor/shaft size of 3", the wheel is intended for use on compatible surface grinders operating at up to 2220 RPM. The pink aluminum oxide grain is recognized for durability on tool steel and stainless applications at light to moderate feed rates, offering notable wear resistance compared with some conventional grains under these conditions. This makes the wheel a practical choice when you need reliable grinding performance across a range of tool steels and hard alloys without excessive heat buildup.
Careful consideration of wheel size, grit, and hardness is important for achieving the desired surface finish and dimensional tolerances. The package includes two wheels per box, with each wheel sold individually. When selecting this wheel, verify the grinder’s spindle arbor compatibility and ensure appropriate safety practices are followed during use, including wheel mounting and guard alignment. This product is categorized under Facility Maintenance and is suitable for professionals performing precision grinding and material removal tasks on tough metals where heat sensitivity and edge quality matter.
