It measures 3 inches in diameter with a 1\/4-inch thickness and a 1\/4-inch arbor hole. The abrasive grain is aluminum oxide at 54 grit, placing it in the coarse grade range and making it well-suited for aggressive stock removal on ferrous metals and general shop grinding tasks. The wheel carries a hard hardness rating and is rated to a maximum of 18,080 RPM, meeting the demands of typical bench grinder spindle speeds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wheel fits standard bench and pedestal grinder setups found in machine shops, fabrication facilities, maintenance departments, and trade workshops. Its compact 3-inch diameter suits smaller bench grinders used for tool sharpening, deburring, and light surface reconditioning. The coarse 54-grit aluminum oxide construction handles carbon steel, alloy steel, and similar ferrous workpieces efficiently. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and fabricators are the primary installers and users of this wheel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType 1 straight wheel profile for use on bench and pedestal grinders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAluminum oxide abrasive grain rated for ferrous metal grinding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoarse 54-grit for aggressive stock removal and surface conditioning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHard wheel hardness rating for extended wear life on general grinding applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e18,080 RPM maximum speed rating for standard bench grinder compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo-recess design for straightforward mounting on standard arbors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit grinding wheel for bench grinders and pedestal grinders accepting a Type 1 straight wheel with a 3-inch diameter, 1\/4-inch thickness, and 1\/4-inch arbor hole.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eGrinding wheel installation and replacement should be performed by a qualified machinist or maintenance technician following ANSI B7.1 safety standards for the use, care, and protection of abrasive wheels. Always power down and de-energize the grinder completely before removing or mounting a wheel. Inspect the wheel for cracks or chips before mounting, and perform a ring test per ANSI guidelines. Never exceed the maximum rated RPM of the wheel or the grinder, whichever is lower.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Type 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 54 (Coarse)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbrasive Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum RPM\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18,080\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecess Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: No Recess\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: CRATEX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40033\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CRATEX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67914104308018,"sku":"40033","price":26.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/15cdb152cbfaa0da78bcae67319033e0.jpg?v=1791247336","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/cratex-40033-surface-grinding-wheel-54-grit-type-1","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
