The CGW 58049 is a 14 inch by 1 inch by 5 inch surface grinding wheel designed for heavy stock removal and precise finish and sizing. Manufactured with PA-46I pink aluminum oxide grain, this wheel is suited for sharpening and grinding tool steel and is positioned to deliver fast and cool cutting, particularly on heat-sensitive alloys and hard materials. The pink aluminum oxide formulation is chosen for its balance of cut-rate and wear resistance, making it a practical choice for demanding surface grinding tasks where control of heat is important.
Key construction details include a 14" diameter, 1" thickness, and a 5" arbor/shank size with a Type 1 profile and GRIT 46. The wheel is specified for use at up to 1910 RPM and is offered in a package containing two units per box. This combination supports efficient inventory management and batching for shops performing routine tool steel work and precision grinding where a consistent, predictable cut is required. The PA-46I pink aluminum oxide formulation provides a distinct performance profile that can influence grinding heat generation, finish quality, and wheel wear compared with other aluminum oxide grades.
When planning use, ensure compatibility with compatible grinders that accept 5" arbor wheels and operate within the RPM rating. Maintain appropriate grinding parameters to balance material removal with heat control, and replace wheels in pairs or as needed to preserve balanced operation. This description reflects the documented product construction and packaging as provided by the manufacturer source. For exact compatibility with your equipment, confirm that your grinder accepts a 14" x 1" x 5" Type 1 wheel, 46 grit, with a 5" arbor and a maximum RPM of 1910.
