Features
- Diamond Abrasive Grain—Provides exceptional hardness and wear resistance, ensuring efficient grinding of carbide tools with minimal wheel wear.
- Cup Type (11V9) Profile—Designed for access to tool relief areas and fine edge work, enabling accurate sharpening and secondary relief.
- Resin and Hybrid Bond Systems—Tailored to balance aggressive stock removal with surface finish quality and long wheel life.
- High Form Retention—Maintains wheel shape across multiple cycles, supporting consistent tool geometry.
- Cool Cutting Action—Reduces thermal loading on carbide tools, minimizing risk of edge chipping or microcracking.
Application
Application
- 1
Pointing and sharpening of carbide drills to restore precise cutting edges.
- 2
Secondary relief grinding on carbide end mills for optimized clearance.
- 3
Clearing and edge preparation of reamers and rotary cutting tools made from tungsten carbide.
Recommendations
- Ensure continuous coolant delivery to reduce heat buildup and protect cutting edges.
- Match grit size to the operation—finer grits for sharpening/finishing, coarser grits for clearing and stock removal.
- Dress wheels periodically to maintain sharp cutting action and precise cup geometry.
- Follow recommended operating speeds to balance stock removal with wheel life.
- Store wheels in a dry, temperature-stable environment to maintain bond integrity.
