The Alpha DW Style Grinding Wheel is an aggressive grinding wheel formulated for shaping, profiling, and material removal on natural stone and other hard materials. It is commonly used for edge profiling, smoothing rough surfaces, preparing surfaces for lamination, and removing excess material on granite and similar substrates.
The wheel utilizes a turbo-style design that supports fast stock removal while maintaining control during grinding operations. It can be used in both wet and dry applications and mounts to most standard angle grinders using a 5/8"-11 threaded arbor. Coarse and medium grit options allow the user to select the appropriate level of material removal for each task.
The grinding wheel performs particularly well on dense and hard granites, including red granites, which are typically more difficult to shape. Its construction is intended to provide consistent cutting performance and extended service life during heavy grinding and shaping applications.
