Built with aluminum oxide abrasive and a vitrified bond, this wheel operates at a maximum of 2070 RPM and carries a coarse 46-grit rating with an I hardness code. The vitrified bond provides rigidity and open porosity, which promotes chip clearance and reduces heat buildup during heavy grinding passes. At 18.09 pounds, this is a substantial wheel suited for production-level surface and cylindrical grinding operations performed by skilled machinists and grinding technicians.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wheel is designed for use on surface grinders, cylindrical grinders, and CNC cutting tool machines. Its aluminum oxide composition makes it effective across a broad range of materials including 400 series stainless steel, hard and soft carbon steels, tool steels, aluminum, cast iron, ductile iron, and gray iron. The coarse grit and medium hardness rating suit applications where aggressive material removal is the priority over fine surface finish. It fits machines with a 3 inch arbor bore and accepts standard straight-wheel mounting hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAluminum oxide abrasive grain for versatile ferrous and non-ferrous metal grinding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVitrified bond with open porous structure promotes chip clearance and reduces heat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e46 grit coarse grade for aggressive stock removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI hardness code (medium) balances wheel wear rate against cutting efficiency\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType 1 straight wheel configuration with no recess, compatible with standard surface and cylindrical grinder spindles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpecification designation 32A46-IVBE for cross-reference and replacement ordering\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 ring-test the wheel before mounting and inspect for cracks or chips. Power down and lock out the grinder before changing wheels. Never exceed the 2070 RPM maximum speed rating marked on the wheel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbrasive Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Type 1 Straight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBond Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Vitrified\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification\u003c\/strong\u003e: 32A46-IVBE\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: I (Medium)\u003c\/li\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: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum RPM\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2070\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePorous\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\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: Gray\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18.09 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: 66253263459\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NORTON","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542814392626,"sku":"66253263459","price":757.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/c7692d4b6208f45b12176da903e3b99e.jpg?v=1785908160","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/norton-66253263459-surface-grinding-wheel-12in-46-grit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
