Choosing a grinding wheel
Start with the machine. A bench or pedestal grinder takes a straight wheel matched to its diameter, thickness and bore, while an angle grinder takes a depressed centre disc matched to its guard and arbour. Then match the abrasive to the material: aluminium oxide is the common choice for steel, silicon carbide suits non-ferrous and non-metallic materials, and stainless work calls for an iron-free disc to avoid contamination. Check the maximum operating speed marked on the wheel against the speed of your machine, and never exceed it.
Always check the data sheet. Confirm the size, bore, grade and maximum speed suit your machine and material before fitting a wheel.

Grinding wheel FAQs
What is the difference between a bench grinder wheel and an angle grinder disc?
A bench or pedestal wheel is a thick straight wheel that mounts on a fixed grinder, while an angle grinder disc is a thin depressed centre disc that mounts on a handheld grinder. They are not interchangeable.
How do I choose the right grinding wheel?
Match the wheel to your machine (diameter, thickness and bore), the material you are grinding, and the finish you need. Coarser grits remove material faster and finer grits give a better finish.
Which grinding wheel is best for stainless steel?
Use a wheel or disc made for stainless, such as the Inox and iron-free discs we list. These are designed to avoid contaminating the surface.
What are toolroom grinding wheels?
Toolroom wheels in white aluminium oxide come in straight, recessed, cup, dish and saucer shapes for tool and cutter grinding. We list Norton toolroom wheels in each of these shapes.
What size grinding wheels do you list?
Bench and pedestal wheels are listed from 150 to 400mm diameter, and depressed centre discs in 100, 125 and 230mm. Check the size and bore against your machine.
Can I use a grinding wheel faster than its marked speed?
No. Every wheel has a maximum operating speed marked on it, and it must not be exceeded. Check it against your grinder before fitting.
