It measures 3 inches in diameter with a 1\/4 inch thickness and a 1\/4 inch arbor hole, making it a compact, purpose-built abrasive for bench grinders and die grinders used in trade and maintenance applications. The 46 grit coarse grade removes material aggressively, suitable for deburring, shaping, and surface preparation tasks. The hard hardness rating supports consistent wheel life under sustained contact pressure. Machinists, pipefitters, fabricators, and maintenance technicians commonly reach for this wheel when fast stock removal is the priority.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wheel suits residential and light commercial maintenance shops, fabrication benches, and field service kits where a small-diameter coarse grinding wheel is needed. Its compact 3 inch diameter fits standard small arbor grinders and rotary tool setups with a 1\/4 inch collet or arbor. The coarse 46 grit is appropriate for rough grinding passes on ferrous and non-ferrous metals, weld cleanup, and edge conditioning before finish work. It is not intended as a finishing wheel and should be followed by a finer grit step when surface finish tolerances are tight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e46 grit coarse grade for aggressive stock removal and fast surface preparation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHard hardness rating extends wheel life under continuous grinding pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 inch diameter fits compact bench grinders and die grinders with 1\/4 inch arbors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/4 inch thick wheel profile suited to surface and face grinding operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/4 inch arbor hole for direct mount on standard small grinder spindles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-mount replacement or supplemental wheel for bench grinders, die grinders, and rotary tools accepting a 1\/4 inch arbor and a 3 inch diameter wheel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified technician or machinist. Always power down and unplug or de-energize the grinder fully before mounting or removing any abrasive wheel. Inspect the wheel for cracks or chips before each use and never operate a damaged wheel. Follow ANSI B11 and applicable shop safety standards for abrasive wheel mounting, including proper flange and guard installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\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: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArbor Hole Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 46\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Coarse\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: 80368\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CRATEX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67906076541234,"sku":"80368","price":76.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/323e544a8ebe0675796569cc00ffd2d5.jpg?v=1791164394","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/cratex-80368-surface-grinding-wheel-3in-46-grit-coarse","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
