The CGW 59084 is an 8-inch diameter surface grinding wheel designed for heavy stock removal with a precise finish. Built with a porous Ruby Aluminum Oxide (RA) abrasive, this wheel leverages a friable, sharp grade that maintains form under demanding grinding tasks, making it suitable for a range of tool steels and alloys that include higher chromium content. The wheel’s 1/2-inch thickness and 1-1/4-inch arbor size are configured for compatible grinders that accept standard 8x1/2x1-1/4 sizing, and its H grade indicates a harder formulation intended to hold its shape during aggressive material removal at typical grinding speeds of up to 3600 RPM.
The RA-46H12 designation identifies a 46-grit Ruby Aluminum Oxide composition, emphasizing aggressive material removal with a robust cutting action and good wear resistance. The porous structure contributes to effective chip clearance and a consistent grind by exposing new abrasive grains as the wheel wears. This makes the wheel well-suited for rough grinding of tool steels, including chromium-rich variants, where a balance between material removal and control of size and finish is important.
In practice, this wheel is appropriate for shop environments requiring dependable performance on heavy stock removal tasks while maintaining dimensional accuracy. Confirm compatibility with your grinder’s spindle and arbor, and ensure appropriate safety practices for wheel mounting, balancing, and guard coverage. This product is packaged as an individual wheel, with a typical box quantity of 10 per order, and is suitable for applications demanding a single-wheel solution that can sustain repeated use under high-load conditions.
