Product Description

By entering your model number, you can make sure that this fits.
Solid aluminum body, 8" dia by 1", with CBN on the face and 1/4" sides. For shafts up to 5/8 inch.
Designed to work with slow-speed 8-inch bench grinders at 1800 or 3600 RPM.
It will never need to be dressed or trued. Because the wheel diameter remains constant, you won't have to adjust your jig as often. Two parallel surface washers have been precision ground now.
Only use with tools made of high-speed steel (HSS).
Note that the tolerences on these wheels are extremely tight. The arbor hole has been cut to a precise size. The measurement is 6254 inches. Many grinding motors have a shaft that is not as percise and may be slightly larger than. 625 inch. There will be an interference fit as a result of this. A small amount of emery cloth on the shaft will aid in the installation of the wheel.

Questions & Answers

Have you got a 120-grit aluminum wheel?

No, there isn't one in 120 grit.

What is the best way for me to get more precision ground washers?

Not sure. I bought a few washers at the hardware store that are the right size for spacing the wheel out from the grinder.

Is there a 120 grit option?

at the moment, no

I'm curious about the origins of this wheel. ?

Installation on a Rikon grinder
5/5

I went to Lowe's and purchased four 5/8 washers; the openings were too large, but they did the job. I used two of the ones I bought, followed by the grinder's left washer. Put the wheel on, then add the right supplied washer, one more of the ones I bought, and finally the nut. It worked well, but there was a hum. The vibration was reduced after I removed the other wheel that came with the grinder. I used a spindle gouge to make a couple of snowmen for my wife. On my tools, this is the best grind I've ever had.

Install is relatively simple
4/5

I've got a WEN 4286 3-piece set. Amp 8- Inch Slow Speed Bench Grinder, which required the purchase of two 5/8" flat washers in order to center it for my sharpening jig. I ended up putting one of the black provided washers on the right side of the wheel and the old, silver, larger washer that came with the previous stone wheel on the opposite side of the wheel. With only minor wiggle/vibration, it appears to be working fine.
