Grier Abrasives B44-S6-18153 Mounted Point Tree Shape

Product Description

The GRIER ABRASIVES B44-S6-18153 is a tree-shaped silicon carbide mounted point designed for precision grinding, deburring, and surface finishing on hard materials. The fine grade abrasive and unitized bond construction deliver consistent stock removal with a controlled cut rate. This mounted point runs at a maximum of 68,400 RPM and features a 3/32-inch shank diameter, making it compatible with standard die grinders and rotary tools used in metalworking, fabrication, and tool-and-die applications. It weighs 0.006 pounds, making it lightweight for extended use in handheld operations.

This mounted point is suited for grinding, blending, and deburring tasks on hard ferrous and non-ferrous metals, ceramics, and carbide materials. The B44 tree profile allows access to contoured surfaces, slots, and recesses where flat or cylindrical wheels cannot reach. Machinists, tool grinders, and fabricators typically use this style of mounted point for detail work on molds, dies, and precision components. The medium density and fine grit combination support finishing passes where surface quality is the primary objective.

Key Features

• Tree (B44) point shape for access to contoured surfaces, slots, and recessed areas
• Fine grade silicon carbide abrasive for controlled material removal and surface finishing
• Unitized bond construction at medium density for consistent performance across the wheel life
• Maximum rated speed of 68,400 RPM for use with high-speed die grinders and rotary tools
• 3/32-inch shank diameter fits standard collets on most die grinders and rotary handpieces
• Green color coding for easy identification of silicon carbide grade and type

Compatibility

Designed for use with die grinders and rotary tools accepting a 3/32-inch shank diameter. Suited for grinding and finishing operations on hard metals, ceramics, and carbide workpieces where a tree-profile mounted point is required.

Installation Notes

Installation and use should be performed by a qualified machinist or fabricator familiar with abrasive wheel safety. Before mounting, confirm the tool spindle speed does not exceed the 68,400 RPM rating of this mounted point. Secure the shank fully into the collet to the recommended insertion depth per the tool manufacturer, and inspect the wheel for chips or cracks before each use. Always wear appropriate eye protection and follow ANSI B7.1 safety standards for abrasive wheel operation.
