It measures 12 inches in diameter, 1 inch thick, with a 3-inch arbor hole, and carries a 46-grit coarse grade with an H hardness rating. The vitrified bond delivers consistent grain exposure and free-cutting action, making it well suited for high-material-removal applications where surface finish is secondary to cutting speed. Rated at a maximum of 2,070 RPM, this wheel is built for production grinding environments where repeatable results are required across extended runs. Installation and use require a licensed or trained machinist or tool-and-die professional.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wheel is designed for use on surface grinders, cylindrical grinders, and CNC cutting tool machines. It is rated for grinding 400 series stainless steel, hard carbon steels, soft carbon steels, tool steels, aluminum, cast iron, ductile iron, and gray iron. The coarse 46-grit construction makes it particularly effective for aggressive stock removal passes before finishing operations. The non-porous, non-tapered, no-recess Type 1 flat wheel profile suits standard surface grinder spindle configurations in both job shop and production machine shop environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e46-grit coarse aluminum oxide abrasive for aggressive stock removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVitrified bond provides consistent grain exposure and wheel integrity at operating speeds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eH hardness (soft hardness rating) promotes self-dressing action on harder workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNon-porous, no-recess, non-tapered Type 1 flat wheel profile for standard spindle mounting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated for multiple material applications including stainless, tool steels, aluminum, and cast irons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeries designation 32A Type 1 with specification code 46H8V32A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eRated for use with surface grinders, cylindrical grinders, and CNC cutting tool machines.

Always power down and lock out the grinder before mounting or removing a wheel. Inspect the wheel for cracks or chips before mounting and perform a ring test per ANSI guidelines. Never exceed the wheel's maximum rated RPM of 2,070 under any operating condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\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 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 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: H\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\u003eMaximum RPM\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2,070\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 46H8V32A\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\u003eWheel Color\u003c\/strong\u003e: Blue \/ Gray\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\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: 66253246889\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NORTON","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542964896050,"sku":"66253246889","price":97.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/982ae45f10589186a3c9646c7da10a43.jpg?v=1785912444","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/norton-66253246889-surface-grinding-wheel-12in-46-grit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
