This series is available in 3\", 4\", 6\", and 8\" diameters with grit options from 80 to 240, covering everything from initial stock removal to fine surface finishing. The 3\" wheel uses a fixed 3\/8\" arbor; the 4\" and 6\" wheels feature an adjustable arbor to fit most standard bench and pedestal grinder spindle sizes; the 8\" wheel uses a fixed 1\" arbor with a full 1\" working width for larger bench and pedestal grinders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe unique rubber-based composition mixed with aluminum oxide grain delivers effective abrasive action while maintaining a gentle touch on the workpiece.
