Flat Grinding Wheel Andre 125 mm × 16 mm × 12.7 mm, 95A60K5VTE10-35, gray

Andre flat grinding wheel 125 mm × 16 mm × 12.7 mm in gray is a bonded abrasive wheel designed for material removal and surface finishing on angle grinders and die grinders with a 12.7 mm (1/2") bore. The abrasive designation 95A60K5VTE10-35 indicates a specific abrasive grain and bond combination optimized for cutting, grinding and deburring metal and other hard materials where a flat wheel profile is required. The wheel's dimensions and profile provide a stable contact area for consistent stock removal and predictable surface results.

Advantages

The flat grinding wheel offers a balance of cutting speed and wheel life due to its abrasive composition, enabling efficient removal of welds, flash and material irregularities. Its 12.7 mm bore fits standard collet and arbor sizes used on many grinders and die grinders, ensuring straightforward mounting. The flat profile maintains even wear across the face, which helps keep surface finish consistent during extended use.

Suitable for

• Removing weld seams and grinding weld preparation on steel and stainless steel
• Deburring and edge blending on castings and fabricated parts
• Surface smoothing and stock removal on hardened metals and alloys
• General-purpose grinding on construction and metalworking tasks where a flat wheel is required

How to use

Inspect the wheel before mounting for visible damage or cracks. Mount the wheel securely on a grinder or die grinder compatible with a 12.7 mm bore, following the tool manufacturer's mounting and safety instructions. Operate the grinder within its rated speed range and apply moderate, even pressure when cutting or grinding to avoid overheating the workpiece or loading the wheel. Allow the wheel to do the cutting; avoid excessive side forces that could damage the wheel or reduce its service life. Replace the wheel when wear reduces cutting performance or if any damage is observed.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment including eye protection, gloves, and hearing protection. Ensure the workpiece is securely clamped and use coolant or intermittent grinding on heat-sensitive materials to prevent thermal damage. Store wheels in a dry, stable environment away from extreme temperatures and impacts to preserve abrasive properties.
