Measuring 12 inches in diameter, 1 inch thick, with a 3-inch arbor hole, this wheel carries a 46 grit coarse grade and J hardness code, placing it in the medium-hardness range suitable for controlled, consistent cutting action. The vitrified bond provides rigidity and porosity control, while the semi-friable aluminum oxide abrasive self-sharpens during use. Rated at a maximum of 2,070 RPM, it is sized for industrial surface grinders and CNC cutting tool machines operated by machinists and grinding specialists.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wheel is well suited for surface grinding operations on soft carbon steels, tool steels, and super alloys in both production and tool-room environments. The 38A series designation identifies it as a Norton 38A-grade white aluminum oxide formulation, recognized in precision grinding for its cool-cutting characteristics on heat-sensitive materials. Typical applications include flat surface work on surface grinders and profile grinding on cylindrical grinders where consistent finish and dimensional control are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e46 grit coarse grade for aggressive stock removal with controlled surface finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJ hardness (medium) balances wheel wear rate against cutting efficiency on soft and medium-hardness workpieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVitrified bond provides dimensional stability and resistance to oils and coolants used in wet grinding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSemi-friable aluminum oxide abrasive self-sharpens to maintain cutting performance throughout wheel life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType 1 straight wheel profile fits standard surface grinder spindle configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhite wheel color indicates aluminum oxide composition for visual identification at the machine\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 mounting. Inspect the wheel for cracks or chips using the ring test before installation, and never exceed the marked maximum operating speed. A proper wheel blotter and flanges of correct diameter must be used to distribute clamping load evenly.\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\u003eWheel Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Type 1\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\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\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: 2,070\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFriability\u003c\/strong\u003e: Semi-Friable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Color\u003c\/strong\u003e: White\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\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 38A Type 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\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: 9.045 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: 66253262704\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NORTON","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51540446380338,"sku":"66253262704","price":240.73,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/611c3eb1acf0fda5b8b1d22585bc1c77.jpg?v=1785855428","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/norton-66253262704-surface-grinding-wheel-12in-46-grit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
