Flat Grinding Wheel Andre 150 mm x 20 mm x 12.7 mm CRA60K7VE01-35 Type 1 (pink)

The Andre Flat Grinding Wheel CRA60K7VE01-35 Type 1 (pink) is a 150 mm diameter abrasive wheel designed for material removal, surface shaping and finishing on bench or handheld grinders. With a thickness of 20 mm and a 12.7 mm bore, this flat wheel fits standard 150 mm grinder flanges and is intended for general-purpose metalworking and workshop grinding tasks. The CRA60 abrasive grade provides a balance between cutting rate and wheel life for a variety of common workshop applications.

Advantages

How to use

Inspect the grinding wheel for visible damage before mounting. Fit the wheel onto a grinder with a matching 12.7 mm arbor and secure according to the grinder manufacturer's instructions. Use appropriate guards, maintain correct flange pressure, and ensure the wheel runs true before starting work. Apply the wheel to the workpiece with steady, moderate pressure, allowing the abrasive to do the cutting; avoid excessive side loads that can stress the wheel. Keep the workpiece moving to prevent concentrated wear and overheating.

Usage recommendations

Always wear suitable personal protective equipment including eye protection, gloves and hearing protection. Use the wheel within the recommended speed limits of your grinder and follow all machine safety guidelines. Store the wheel in a dry area away from extreme temperatures and handle it carefully to avoid chips or cracks that could compromise safety.
