Mini Grinding Wheel 22.2mm
The wheel is made of bonded Silicon Carbide and has a distinctive light green colour.
It has a very high abrasive power and is mostly used on mineral based materials - stone, porcelain, ceramic, glass etc.
Application - stone:
- Engraving
- Smoothing/finishing
- Carving
It can also be used on non-ferrous metals, such as aluminium, copper, brass
Application - non-ferrous metals:
- Sharpening
- Engraving
- Deburring
- Precision grinding
Application:
- Max rated RPM: 35 000 RPM
- Sharpening chisels, knife edges cutting tools and more.
- Removes sharp edges on cut metal parts.
- Refines contours in metal or stone.
- Removes rust, weld spatter, and surface coating.
- Ceramics: 20 000 - 30 000 RPM
- Glass: 20 000 - 30 000 RPM
- Stonework: 20 000 - 25 000 RPM
Grinding non-ferrous metals tend to gall and clog up the grinding point. It is recommended to make use of a stone dresser TC08424 to clean it up, should it become clogged.
The shank of the rotary cutter is securely locked in place by fitting it in the corresponding collet or making use of a keyless chuck.
Rotation speed:
Most rotary tools have the benefit to adjust the rotation speed. Many tool bits that fit in rotary tools have a maximum speed setting. This can normally be found on the packaging.
All materials react differently to speed and will need the tool bit to rotate slower. It is recommended to start using accessories on the slower speed first, before increasing the speed as needed.
The diameter of the tool bit fitted also determines the rotation speed. The larger the diameter, the slower the speed. If the speed is set too high, it could bend the shank/shaft resulting in injury.
