CGW 58043 14" X 2" X 5" T5 PA-46H 46-Grit Pink Aluminum Oxide Surface Grinding Wheel

The CGW 58043 is a 14 inch by 2 inch by 5 inch surface grinding wheel designed for heavy stock removal with a precise finish. It features PA-46H pink aluminum oxide grain and a type 5 configuration, offering reliable performance for sharpening and grinding tool steel and other hard alloys. The wheel is formulated to provide faster, cooler cutting, which helps minimizes heat buildup when working with heat-sensitive materials, aiding in maintaining part tolerances and surface quality.

Constructed with a 46‑grit PA pink aluminum oxide bond, this wheel is engineered for durability at light to moderate feed rates, and it is noted to be more durable than WA-grade wheels on tool steel and stainless at those feed rates. The wheel runs at a nominal 1910 RPM, consistent with its size and application, helping to balance material removal rates with surface integrity. Packaging is a single unit per box, with the specified arbor size of 5 inches to fit compatible grinding equipment that accommodates a 5 inch shank or adapter.

When selecting this wheel, consider its primary use for heavy stock removal and precision finish on tool steels and hard alloys, as well as the need for cooling during cutting to preserve material properties. Verify that your grinding machine supports 14 inch diameter wheels and the 5 inch arbor, and ensure proper dressing and truing procedures to maintain wheel performance and surface finish. Proper mounting and balance are essential for safe operation and achieving consistent results.
