The wheel measures 12 inches in diameter and 1.5 inches thick with a 5-inch arbor hole, and runs at a maximum of 2705 RPM. At 46 grit with a K hardness code and coarse grade, this wheel removes material aggressively while maintaining control on a wide range of ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Weighing 8.4 pounds, it is built for production and maintenance grinding environments where consistent stock removal is the priority.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis wheel is suited for professional shops and industrial maintenance operations performing surface and cylindrical grinding on metals including 400 series stainless steel, hard and soft carbon steels, tool steels, aluminum, cast iron, ductile iron, and gray iron. The coarse 46-grit aluminum oxide abrasive makes it a practical choice for rapid stock removal passes rather than fine finishing work. It is typically installed and operated by machinists, tool and die makers, and maintenance machinists working with surface grinder or cylindrical grinder setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eType 5 recessed wheel with a 7.5-inch recess diameter and 0.5-inch recess depth on one side for clearance in surface grinder setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVitrified bond construction provides rigidity and consistent cut throughout wheel life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAluminum oxide abrasive rated for use on stainless steels, carbon steels, tool steels, aluminum, and multiple grades of cast iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e46 grit coarse grade delivers aggressive stock removal on hard and tough materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eK hardness code indicates medium wheel hardness, balancing abrasive retention with friability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum operating speed of 2705 RPM — do not exceed this rating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with surface grinders and cylindrical grinders.

Before mounting, inspect the wheel visually and perform a ring test to check for cracks. Power down and lock out the grinder before changing wheels, and verify that the machine spindle speed does not exceed the 2705 RPM maximum marked on the wheel. Always use the correct flanges and blotters as specified by the wheel and machine manufacturer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Type 5\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\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Hardness Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Medium\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum RPM\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2705\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\u003eRecess Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecess Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecess Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: One-Side\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Color\u003c\/strong\u003e: Blue and Gray\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePorous\u003c\/strong\u003e: Non-Porous\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 46K8V32A\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8.4 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23131503\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 66253246859\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NORTON","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51539463635250,"sku":"66253246859","price":134.88,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/947fea31b51ad684097d501284052c50.jpg?v=1785840743","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/norton-66253246859-surface-grinding-wheel-12in-46-grit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
