Shaped Norton Toolroom Grinding Wheels for Metals
The special shapes of these wheels provide more clearance than typical straight wheels.
38A white wheels are for light material removal. They stay cool during use, so they're a good choice for heat-sensitive applications. They are aluminum oxide, which is the most common abrasive used in grinding metal.
32A purple wheels are for medium to heavy material removal. They are aluminum oxide.
Caution: Use only accessories that have a greater rpm rating than the maximum speed of the grinder you choose.
