Abrasive
Feature
Application
A
Brown aluminum oxide, hard and tough.
This is the most common used abrasive, especial for heavy duty grinding on general steels.
FA
The characteristic is between A and WA.
Special for precision grinding on alloy steels.
WA
White aluminum oxide, more friable than A.
Suitable for light grinding on general and hardened steels.
19A
Mixed abrasive of A and WA.
Precision grinding on alloy steels with low hardness.
GC
Green silicon carbide, harder and more friable than C.
Besides the application of C, it's also used to grind solid carbide tools.

Grade

Bonds

Type
Verified (V)
Resin (R)
Electroplated (P)
Sintered Metal (M)
Features
Due to the porosity:
Free cutting.
Good dressability.
Good profileability.
Bonds are softer.
Better surface finish of workpiece.
Higher material removal rate due to the 30 - 50% protrusion ratio of grain diameter.
Suitable for profiled wheel body.
Bonds are harder.
Higher wear resistance.
Longer tool life.
Ideal for grinding wheels with sharp edge.
