CGW 58044 14" X 2" X 5" T5 PA-46I 46-Grit Pink Aluminum Oxide Surface Grinding Wheel

The CGW 58044 is a surface grinding wheel designed for heavy stock removal with a precise finish on tool steel and related alloys. It features a 14" diameter, 2" thickness, and a 5" arbor, conforming to common large-diameter grinding machine specifications. The wheel’s PA-46I pink aluminum oxide grain provides a balance of fast cutting and a controlled, cool grind, which helps mitigate heat buildup during material removal on heat-sensitive or hard alloys.

Construction details include a Type 5 grain structure and an I hardness grade, which together influence resistance to loading and the ability to maintain a consistent grinding action under moderate feed rates. The 46-grit size, paired with pink aluminum oxide formulation, is chosen to deliver predictable material removal rates while preserving accuracy in the finished surface. This wheel is intended for use in applications requiring aggressive stock removal without compromising dimensional tolerances, making it suitable for machining and refurbishing tool steel components and similar substrates.

Practical considerations include mounting on compatible grinding rigs that accept 14" x 2" x 5" wheels and operating at appropriate RPM to match the wheel’s rated 1910 RPM. Users should ensure proper wheel dressing and balancing procedures to achieve stable performance and surface finish. The packaging is listed as one piece per box, consistent with industrial procurement practices for large-diameter wheels. No compatibility, warranty, or origin details are provided beyond what is specified, so confirm system fit and safety requirements before integration into maintenance workflows.
