Grinding wheels & contact wheels

A worn or damaged grinding wheel affects both finish quality and operator safety. AIMS stocks aluminium oxide grinding wheels for general steel sharpening, silicon carbide wheels for harder materials, and rubber contact wheels from Linishall for linisher belt applications. Maxigear wheel dressers restore grinding wheel profiles after wear — extending wheel life and recovering original cutting performance. Bench grinder wheels and operating procedures are covered by AS 1788.1 — Australia's safety standard for abrasive wheels — including ring-test, mounting torque and run-up procedures.

Spindles, guards and safety controls

Maxigear extension spindles (M16 thread) and tapered spindles allow flexibility when fitting wheels with different bore sizes to a standard grinder. Abbott & Ashby accessories include eyeshield spares, on/off switches for 6" and 8" grinders and emergency stop buttons for 240 V single-phase motors — keeping older grinders compliant with workplace electrical and machine guarding requirements.

Buffing machines & wire wheels

Abbott & Ashby's 6" 280 W industrial buffing machine is a popular choice for polishing and deburring in toolrooms and workshops. Paired with the right wire wheel or buffing mop it handles a wide range of surface finishing tasks — from rust and paint removal through to final polishing on stainless and aluminium.
