Built with aluminum oxide abrasive in a vitrified bond, this wheel delivers consistent cut rates and good form-holding under the load conditions typical of surface and cylindrical grinding operations. At 12 inches in diameter, 3\/4 inches thick, and bored to a 3-inch arbor hole, it mounts directly to production surface grinders without modification. The 46-grit coarse grade removes material aggressively, while the J hardness code keeps the wheel from glazing on softer workpieces. Maximum operating speed is rated at 2070 RPM.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wheel is suited for grinding soft carbon steels, tool steels, and super alloys in job-shop and production environments. Typical applications include surface grinding flat stock, reconditioning tool steel blanks, and finish passes on alloy components where a consistent scratch pattern is required. The white aluminum oxide abrasive is semi-friable, meaning it self-sharpens during use, reducing heat buildup and the risk of workpiece burn on heat-sensitive materials. It is intended for use by machinist trades operating CNC cutting tool machines, cylindrical grinders, and surface grinders.\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\u003eJ hardness (medium) vitrified bond resists glazing on soft carbon and tool steels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSemi-friable grain continuously self-sharpens to reduce heat at the grind zone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType 1 straight profile with no recess — mounts flat to standard surface grinder spindles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNon-tapered, non-porous construction for uniform wheel face contact\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpecification designation 38A46-JVBE for direct OEM and shop cross-reference\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with CNC cutting tool machines, cylindrical grinders, and surface grinders.

Power down and lock out the grinder before removing the existing wheel. Always perform a ring test by tapping the wheel lightly — a clear tone indicates no cracks; a dull thud means discard the wheel. Do not exceed the 2070 RPM maximum operating speed stamped on this wheel, and use properly sized blotters and flanges as specified by the machine manufacturer.\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: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArbor Hole 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: J (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 (Straight)\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\u003eWheel Color\u003c\/strong\u003e: White\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum RPM\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2070\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification\u003c\/strong\u003e: 38A46-JVBE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Soft Carbon Steels, Tool Steels, Super Alloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6.78 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: 66253262281\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NORTON","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51540541374770,"sku":"66253262281","price":242.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/12f9b25fe525c61589ba3787d959d850.jpg?v=1785857968","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/norton-66253262281-surface-grinding-wheel-12in-46-grit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
