Grinding Wheels Sharpened

Sharpening grinder wheels are also called Grinding Wheel. This grinding wheel has a rough and hard texture that serves to erode the metal surface. The results of erosion using these grinding wheels are still rough and need re-erosion with finer grinding wheels so that the results are satisfactory.

Cut Grinding Wheels

Cut or grinding wheel serves to cut metal. Cutout results are neater when compared to using flexible grinding wheels. Cutting grinders can be used to scrape the metal but because it is thin, the grinding wheel can be broken if you use too much pressure.

The scraping results using sandpaper grinding wheels are smoother when compared to using brush grinding wheels, but the strength of the erosion is smaller. This grinding wheel is used for finishing on metal or wood work.

Flexible Grinding Wheels

Flexible grinding wheels are also called flexible discs. As the name implies, these grinding wheels are not stiff so they can reach a narrow surface. Very good to use in making trellises that have a complicated shape. This grinding wheel can be used to cut metal but the results are not good. When cutting, the grinding wheel will sway so that the cut part will be wider.
