Here&#8217;s a list of some commonly used grinding wheel codes and their specifications. Check them out below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Code_to_Determine_Its_Strength\"><\/span>1. Code to Determine Its Strength<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The strength of a grinding wheel is determined by a code consisting of the numbers 1 to 5. A higher number indicates a harder and more durable grinding wheel.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Grinding wheels with higher strength are usually used for sharpening hard materials, while those with lower strength are suitable for softer materials.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In choosing a grinding wheel, be sure to consider the strength required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Material\"><\/span>2. Material<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The next code is the code that includes information about the material and material content of the grinding wheel used in its manufacture.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some examples of common grinding wheel material codes are as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>(A) Aluminum Oxide: <\/strong>for cutting metal or iron.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>(C) Silicone Carbide: <\/strong>for cutting wheel and building materials<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>(GC) Green Silicone Carbide: <\/strong>for cutting glass and ceramics<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>(WA) White Aluminum Oxide: <\/strong>for cutting stainless steel<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Understanding these grinding wheel material and material type letter codes can help you choose the right grinding wheel for the material you want to cut or polish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Surface_Roughness_Level_Code\"><\/span>3. Surface Roughness Level Code<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Then there is also a number code that displays the surface roughness of the grinding wheel, including the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>8 &#8211; 24:<\/strong> for rough surface<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>30 &#8211; 60:<\/strong> for medium surface<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>70 &#8211; 220:<\/strong> for smooth surface<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>221 &#8211; 800:<\/strong> for ultra-fine surface<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>801 &#8211; 1000:<\/strong> for ultra-fine surface<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><em>Also Read: &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/how-to-choose-abrasive-wheel\/\">How to Choose Abrasive Wheel<\/a>&#8220;<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Codes_for_Hardness_Level_and_Adhesive_Strength\"><\/span>4. Codes for Hardness Level and Adhesive Strength<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Codes that indicate the hardness of the grinding wheel are marked with the letters A to Z. The smaller the number associated with the letter, the harder the grinding wheel.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, a grinding wheel with a Z code will be harder than one with an A code.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In selecting a grinding wheel, pay attention to the material to be cut or polished as well as the desired level of smoothness.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is important so that you can choose the appropriate grinding wheel code. Here&#8217;s a full explanation of the hardness and adhesive strength of grinding wheels:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>D, E, F, G: <\/strong>very soft hardness level<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>H, I, J, K:<\/strong> moderately soft hardness level<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>L, M, N, O: <\/strong>moderate hardness level<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>P, Q, R, S: <\/strong>hard hardness level<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>T, U V, W, X, Z: <\/strong>very hard hardness level<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Code_For_Adhesive_Types\"><\/span>5. Code For Adhesive Types<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, the letter code that indicates the type of adhesion on the grinding wheel includes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>B:<\/strong> for Resinoid adhesion<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>BF: <\/strong>for Resinoid Reinforced adhesion<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>V: <\/strong>for Vitrified adhesion<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>S: <\/strong>for Silicate adhesion<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The codes will be listed sequentially, such as A24SBF or A30RBF, on the surface of the grinding wheel.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is important for those who wish to use grinding wheels to understand the codes described above. Ensure that the grinding wheel used is suitable for the material to be cut.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Understanding the Grinding Wheel Codes &#8211; Grinding wheels are one of the essential tools in<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":2042,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[168,8],"class_list":["post-2041","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-grinder","tag-sni"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2041","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2041"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2041\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2042"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2041"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2041"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2041"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
