Manufactured from white aluminum oxide abrasive with a vitrified bond, this wheel measures 8 inches in diameter, 0.5 inches thick, and carries a 1.25-inch arbor hole. The 46-grit, coarse-grade construction delivers aggressive material removal while the K hardness code and semi-friable grain structure help the wheel break down at a controlled rate, maintaining a sharp cutting face through the cut. Rated to a maximum of 3,600 RPM, it is sized and balanced for surface grinders, cylindrical grinders, and CNC cutting tool machines in professional machine shop and toolroom environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wheel is suited for grinding soft carbon steels, tool steels, and super alloys where consistent surface finish and dimensional accuracy are required. The vitrified bond provides rigidity and porosity control appropriate for wet or dry precision grinding operations. It is a non-porous, non-tapered, flat-face wheel with no recess, making it a straightforward replacement or new setup option for operators running standard surface or cylindrical grinding cycles. The 38A series specification code for this wheel is 38A46-KVBE.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhite aluminum oxide abrasive for controlled, consistent cutting action on ferrous metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVitrified bond provides rigidity and thermal stability during precision grinding passes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e46 grit, coarse grade for efficient stock removal on soft carbon steels, tool steels, and super alloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eK hardness (medium) with semi-friable grain allows controlled breakdown and self-sharpening behavior\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType 1 flat wheel with no recess and no taper for direct mounting on standard arbors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum operating speed of 3,600 RPM — do not exceed this rating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with surface grinders, cylindrical grinders, and CNC cutting tool machines. Compatible with machines accepting a Type 1 wheel with an 8-inch diameter, 0.5-inch face width, and 1.25-inch arbor hole.

Inspect the wheel for cracks or chips using the ring test before installation, and verify that the machine spindle speed does not exceed the 3,600 RPM maximum rating stamped on the wheel. Blotters and proper flange hardware should be used as required by ANSI B11.9 grinding safety standards. Always dress the wheel before the first grinding pass to true the face and expose fresh abrasive.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArbor Hole Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.25 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 Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: K (Medium)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbrasive Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBond Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Vitrified\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Type 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Color\u003c\/strong\u003e: White\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries Specification\u003c\/strong\u003e: 38A46-KVBE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum RPM\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3,600\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFriability\u003c\/strong\u003e: Semi-Friable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePorous\u003c\/strong\u003e: Non-Porous\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTapered\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\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: 2.09 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: NORTON\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 66253043762\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NORTON","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51538989613362,"sku":"66253043762","price":79.62,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/2cb79412008edaac480f524600ffee3d.jpg?v=1785831973","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/norton-66253043762-surface-grinding-wheel-8in-46-grit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
