The CGW 59013 is a 12 inch diameter, 1 inch thick, 3 inch arbor surface grinding wheel designed for heavy stock removal with a precise finish. This wheel uses RA - Ruby Aluminum Oxide as its grain, which is known for a sharp, friable abrasive character and strong form retention, making it suitable for demanding grinding operations on tool steels and alloys with high chromium content. The Type 1 wheel configuration and H (hard) grade indicate a robust bond that supports aggressive material removal while maintaining shape under heavy workloads.
In practical use, this wheel is intended for rough grinding phases where rapid material removal is paired with a controlled, accurate finish. The combination of Ruby Aluminum Oxide grain, high hardness, and the wheel’s geometric dimensions supports applications requiring consistent edge geometry and dimensional stability across the grinding process. When selecting this wheel, consider the RPM rating of 2220 and ensure compatible grinding equipment and wheel mounting to preserve performance and safety. It is packaged as an individual wheel within a two-pack quantity, aiding procurement efficiency for shops performing ongoing surface grinding tasks.
