The CGW 35274 is a feed regulating wheel designed for precise control during grinding or finishing operations. Measuring 12 inches in diameter, 4 inches wide, with a 5-inch arbor/shank, this wheel uses a brown aluminum oxide rubber compound and is listed with an 80 grit rating, suitable for applications requiring consistent material removal on softer or harder workpieces without creating gouges. The wheel’s purpose is to regulate feed and grinding interaction, helping to maintain steady performance under varying loads.
CGW notes an isostatic manufacturing process for these feed regulating wheels, a technique intended to produce uniform gripping and eliminate common defects such as hard spots and voids that can affect wheel balance and surface finish. The product is specified with an A80-R2-RX natural rubber formulation and an A80-R2-CDR calendered rubber option, indicating material choices that influence grip, resilience, and dispersion of heat during use. This level of construction detail matters because a consistent grip translates to predictable feed rates and smoother operation on compatible machinery.
This wheel is packaged as an individual item with a package size of one per unit and comes in a box quantity of two, making it suitable for replenishment in shop environments where multiple wheels may be needed for ongoing maintenance or production workflows. When selecting replacements, ensure compatibility with your equipment’s arbor/shank size and the intended abrasive interaction; the 12" x 4" x 5" form factor must match your machine’s wheel cavity and spindle dimensions. Keep spare wheels on hand to minimize downtime during wheel changes and inspect the rubber compound for any signs of cracking or excessive wear before use.
