The United Abrasives/SAIT 20072 A46N Aluminum Grinding Wheel is a premium abrasive solution specifically engineered for the unique challenges of working with non-ferrous metals. Standard grinding wheels often fail when applied to soft metals like aluminum, copper, or brass because the material "loads" or clogs the face of the wheel. This loading reduces cutting efficiency, increases heat generation, and can lead to dangerous wheel failure. The A46N formulation addresses this issue head-on with a specialized soft bond and aluminum oxide grain structure that resists loading, ensuring consistent, aggressive stock removal throughout the life of the wheel.
Measuring 5 inches in diameter with a 1/4-inch thickness and a standard 7/8-inch arbor, this Type 27 depressed center wheel is compatible with most standard angle grinders. It is rated for a maximum speed of 12,200 RPM, making it suitable for high-speed industrial applications. The internal fiberglass reinforcement provides the structural integrity required for heavy-duty grinding, ensuring operator safety without compromising performance. Whether you are smoothing welds on an aluminum boat hull or fabricating custom brass fixtures, this wheel delivers the bite you need without the frustration of constant glazing.
United Abrasives manufactures these wheels in the USA, adhering to strict quality control standards. The A46N series is designed to outlast competitive wheels by as much as 40%, translating to fewer wheel changes and less downtime for your shop. By maintaining a clean cutting face, the wheel allows operators to work faster and with less fatigue. This 25-pack quantity ensures you have a steady supply of high-quality abrasives for large projects or ongoing production runs.
