Cratex W176A120CXG 1/8 Mounted Point 120 Grit Cylinder

Product Description

The CRATEX W176A120CXG 1/8 is a cylinder-shaped mounted point designed for precision grinding, deburring, and surface finishing on metal, alloy, and composite workpieces. It uses aluminum oxide abrasive at 120 grit for fine material removal with a smooth finish. The soft density bond allows the abrasive to release and refresh at the cutting face, reducing glazing during extended use. This mounted point is installed on a rotary tool, die grinder, or micro grinder by trade machinists, tool and die makers, and maintenance technicians who need controlled, small-area abrasive action in confined spaces or on detailed geometry.

This mounted point suits applications where a standard wheel or disc cannot reach - internal bores, slots, weld seams, mold cavities, and port work on metal components. The 1/8 inch shank fits the collets found on most standard die grinders and rotary hand tools. With a maximum rated speed of 21000 RPM, it handles both low-speed precision passes and higher-speed material removal on the bench or in the field. It is used across general metalworking, tool room, maintenance repair, and light fabrication environments.

Key Features

• Cylinder point shape (W176) for flat-face and side grinding in confined areas
• 120 grit aluminum oxide abrasive for fine, controlled stock removal
• Soft density bond reduces glazing and extends usable abrasive life
• 1/8 inch shank diameter fits standard die grinder and rotary tool collets
• Rated to 21000 RPM for compatibility with high-speed rotary tools
• Lightweight at 0.01 pounds - minimal tool balance impact

Compatibility

Designed as a standard mounted point replacement for rotary tools and die grinders accepting a 1/8 inch collet, rated to a maximum of 21000 RPM.

Installation Notes

A licensed machinist or qualified maintenance technician should verify that the host tool RPM rating does not exceed the 21000 RPM maximum before mounting. Secure the shank fully into the collet and tighten according to the tool manufacturer's specification before operation. Always wear appropriate eye and face protection when operating mounted abrasive points. Inspect the point for cracks or chips before each use and discard if damage is found.
