CGW-Camel Grinding Wheels have expanded their surface conditioning offerings to include a new line of surface preparation wheels and discs. The wheels will consist of aluminum oxide and silicon carbide abrasives.
The surface conditioning line is specifically designed for the blending, smoothing and finishing of stainless steel, steel, aluminum and nonferrous metals.
They are made from nonwoven material saturated with abrasive grains to remove paint, rust, and welding and cutting discoloration from stainless steel.
The maroon-coloured aluminum oxide products have a fine grit size, which is better for use on stainless steel. Conversely, the gray silicon carbide products are very fine in grit size, and provide light finishes on metal, wood, composites and satin-finish aluminum.
Known as type 27, they are available in 4-, 4 1/2-, and 7-inch diameters, and designed with reduced backing to minimize workpiece scratches and allow for full use of the wheel’s material.
The surface preparation discs have a roll-on attachment and are available in 2- and 3-inch diameters in aluminum oxide and silicon carbide grains.
