About Sanding Abrasives

General Purpose Bench and Pedestal Grinding Wheels for Metals
Use these wheels for light grinding, deburring, and sharpening.
Wheels include one of each reducer bushing listed. The smallest bushing size shown is the smallest allowed for that size wheel.
Wheels for steel and stainless steel are aluminum oxide, which is the most common abrasive used in grinding metal.
Wheels for aluminum, brass, and bronze are silicon carbide, which cuts through soft metals without generating much heat or causing material buildup.
Caution: Use only accessories that have a greater rpm rating than the maximum speed of the grinder you choose.
