Gator 6006GA 6 In. Bench Grinding Wheel Adjustable Bushing

Product Description

The GATOR 6006GA is a 6-inch vitrified aluminum oxide bench grinding wheel designed for use on bench-top and pedestal grinders. It ships with an adjustable telescopic reducer bushing that accepts multiple bore sizes, making it compatible with a range of grinder spindle configurations without needing a separate adapter. The aluminum oxide abrasive is formulated for fast, aggressive cutting on tool steel and other hard metals. This wheel is a standard consumable for shops, maintenance facilities, and trade workshops where edge tooling and metal cutting tools need regular sharpening.

The 6006GA is suited for bench-top and pedestal grinder applications in residential workshops and light commercial settings. Its primary use case is sharpening metal cutting tools such as chisels, drill bits, lathe tools, and similar edge tools. The adjustable bushing accommodates bore sizes of 1 inch, 3/4 inch, 5/8 inch, and 1/2 inch, allowing the same wheel to fit multiple grinder models without additional hardware.
