Value Collection 03571486 6 in Diamond Surface Grinding Wheel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 03571486 is a Type 1A1 diamond surface grinding wheel built for fine-material stock removal and precision surface finishing. At 6 inches in diameter and 1/8 inch thick, this wheel mounts on surface grinders and tool-and-cutter grinders via a 1-1/4 inch arbor hole. It carries a 100-grit diamond abrasive layer with a concentration rating of 100, delivering consistent cut rate and form retention across the full 1/8 inch superabrasive depth. The N hardness code places this wheel in the medium hardness range, balancing wheel wear against workpiece material resistance. Installation and dressing are typical tasks for machinists and tool-room technicians working with carbide, ceramics, or hard ferrous alloys.

This wheel is suited for surface grinding operations in machine shops, tool rooms, and precision manufacturing environments. The Type 1A1 form factor is a straight-wheel configuration widely used on horizontal-spindle surface grinders. The fine grade and 100-grit rating make it appropriate for finishing passes and tight-tolerance work where surface finish quality is a priority. It is sold individually and is a practical stocking item for shops that run carbide tooling or hard ceramic workpieces on a regular basis.

Installation Notes

Grinding wheel installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or tool-room technician following applicable ANSI B11 and OSHA 29 CFR 1910.215 safety standards. Power down and lock out the grinder before mounting or removing any wheel. Inspect the wheel for cracks or chips before installation and perform a ring test per standard abrasive wheel practice. Always run a new wheel at operating speed behind a guard for at least one minute before bringing it into contact with a workpiece.
