  1. HOW TO SELECT THE RIGHT GRINDING WHEEL

  2. The grinding wheel is an abrasive cutter. In a grinding wheel, the abrasive grains are distributed on the wheel's edges to perform the cutting function. Thousands of those hard, chewy grains move against the workpiece to chop away tiny chips of fabric. These abrasive grains stick together by a bond, a mixture of selected clays, and separated by pores.

  3. TYPES OF ABRASIVE GRAINS AVAILABLE FOR GRINDING DISCS. Each class has unique properties when it involves hardness, strength, fracture toughness, and resistance to impact. The selection of the abrasive is inevitably associated with the fabric of the workpiece. • Aluminum Oxide Aluminum Oxide is the most common abrasive utilized in grinding wheels. It's generally recommended for grinding materials like chrome steel and gear steels, but it is the right choice for cutting high tensile aluminum and bronze alloys.

  4. Silicon Carbide Harder than standard alumina with a sharp abrasive grain, it's mostly used for grinding gray iron, chilled iron, brass, soft bronze, aluminum, and stone, rubber, and other non-ferrous materials.

  5. Zirconia Alumina Zirconia Alumina is mainly used for rough grinding applications where high stock removal is required. This grain is related to high-tech resin bonds.

  6. Ceramic Alumina This ceramic grain features a unique microcrystalline structure that's self-sharpening. This abrasive is exceptionally hard and powerful. It's primarily used for precision grinding in demanding applications on steels and alloys that are the foremost difficult to grind.

  7. GRINDING WHEEL BOND TYPE: • Strong bonds Such bonds are recommended for soft materials, small or narrow areas of contact, or longer wheel life. • Weak bonds, or soft grades Such bonds are preferable for hardened materials, like hardened tool steels or carbides, giant areas of contact, or rapid stock removal.
