Flat Grinding Wheel Andre 250 × 25 × 76 mm CRA60K7VE01-35 pink Type 1

Flat Grinding Wheel Andre 250 × 25 × 76 mm CRA60K7VE01-35 pink Type 1 is a flat cup abrasive wheel intended for material removal and surface preparation on compatible angle grinders and bench grinders. The wheel’s dimensions — 250 mm diameter, 25 mm thickness and 76 mm bore — provide a stable cutting surface and allow fitting to flanges designed for Type 1 flat cup wheels. It is engineered for general-purpose grinding tasks on metal and other common workshop materials where a flat profile delivers even contact and predictable stock removal.

Advantages

The wheel combines a balanced abrasive composition and a reinforced bond to maintain shape during heavy grinding operations while minimising vibration. Its flat cup profile gives consistent contact with the workpiece for controlled material removal and surface leveling. The specified thickness and bore ensure compatibility with standard Type 1 mounting systems, offering reliable run-out behaviour when correctly mounted and used at rated speed.

Suitable for

• Grinding and smoothing metal surfaces
• Removing weld seams and burrs
• Surface preparation before painting or coating
• General-purpose stock removal in maintenance and fabrication shops

Key specifications

• Outer diameter: 250 mm
• Thickness: 25 mm
• Bore (arbor) diameter: 76 mm
• Abrasive type and grade: CRA60 (aluminium oxide or comparable abrasive with medium hardness)
• Wheel shape: flat cup (Type 1)
• Colour: pink (identifies abrasive composition/grade)
• Intended use: dry grinding for metal and general workshop materials

How to use

Inspect the grinder, flange and wheel for damage before installation. Mount the wheel on a compatible spindle using the correct flanges and tighten according to the machine manufacturer’s torque recommendations. Ensure the wheel runs true and the guard is correctly positioned. Operate at the grinder’s rated speed, applying steady, even pressure without forcing the wheel into the workpiece. Maintain a proper grinding angle for the task and allow the abrasive to do the cutting to avoid overheating or wheel damage. Replace the wheel when worn, cracked, or if you notice excessive vibration.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment — eye protection, face shield, gloves, hearing protection and respiratory protection if dust is generated. Verify that the wheel’s maximum operating speed matches or exceeds the grinder’s no-load speed. Store the wheel flat in a dry area to prevent damage and avoid exposure to moisture or extreme temperatures.
