Grinding wheels

Grinding wheels are tools used for grinding, smoothing, or polishing surfaces. They consist of a carrier material coated with abrasive grains. The abrasive grains can be made of various materials such as aluminum oxide, silicon carbide, or diamond and have different degrees of hardness.

Grinding wheels are used in various fields, including metalworking, woodworking, the automotive industry, mechanical engineering, and jewelry making. They can be used to work on materials such as metal, wood, plastic, ceramic, or glass. Depending on the application and material, different types of grinding wheels are used, such as cutting discs for cutting metal, grinding wheels for removing rust or irregularities, polishing wheels for smoothing surfaces, or grinding wheels for sharpening tools.

Fiber Grinding Discs

Fiber grinding discs consist of a carrier material combined with abrasive grains and reinforcing fibers, such as fiberglass. These fibers give the grinding discs high stability and strength. They are commonly used in metalworking, particularly for grinding weld seams, removing rust, or stripping materials. They are also available in various grits to meet different grinding requirements.

Hook-and-Loop Sanding Discs

Hook-and-loop sanding discs are equipped with a hook-and-loop fastening system. Instead of adhesives or other fastening methods, these sanding discs are simply placed on a hook-and-loop plate and can be easily replaced as needed. The hook-and-loop system allows for quick and easy attachment of the sanding discs to the grinding machines without the need for additional tools or fasteners.

Cutting Discs

Cutting discs are used for cutting materials and consist of a thin, circular disc body coated with abrasive grains. Cutting discs are used in grinding machines or angle grinders and are suitable for cutting metal, stone, concrete, tiles, and other hard materials. The abrasive grains are typically made of corundum or diamond to ensure high cutting performance. The discs are available in various diameters and thicknesses to meet different requirements.

Flap Discs

Flap discs consist of multiple abrasive flaps arranged radially. These flaps are made of abrasive cloth or abrasive fleece and are mounted on a backing disc. Flap discs are used in grinding machines or angle grinders and are suitable for grinding, deburring, derusting, and polishing various materials such as metal, wood, plastic, and painted surfaces. They offer high material removal rates and allow for even grinding over a larger area.

Rough Grinding Wheels

Rough grinding wheels are used for rapid material removal. They consist of a thick disc body coated with coarse abrasive grains. Rough grinding wheels are used in grinding machines or angle grinders and are suitable for removing large amounts of material, such as during deburring, derusting, or grinding weld seams.

When using grinding wheels, there are several points to consider:

1. Safety: Always wear the necessary protective equipment such as safety glasses, hearing protection, and gloves to avoid injuries.
2. Proper Selection: Choose the appropriate grinding wheel for the specific application and material to be processed. Pay attention to the diameter, grit, and hardness of the grinding wheel.
3. Mounting: Ensure that the grinding wheel is properly mounted on the grinding machine and securely in place. Regularly check the condition of the grinding wheel for damage or wear.
4. Correct Use: Guide the grinding wheel over the surface to be worked with even pressure. Avoid excessive pressure, which can damage the grinding wheel or lead to poor results.
5. Regular Inspection: Regularly inspect the condition of the grinding wheel for wear, cracks, or other damage. Damaged grinding wheels should be replaced immediately.
