Recommendations for Wheel’s Hardness Selection

Table 1. Types of hardness

Main Rules for Vitrified Bonded Grinding Wheels Hardness Selection

1. Grinding of hard materials – soft bond. The soft bond also could be used for grinding of soft and yielding materials, such as heatproof and nonferrous alloys.

2. For rough grinding should be used wheels with harder bond.

3. In case of speed rising client should decrease the hardness of the bond.

4. In case of large contact of grinding wheel with processed surface should be used softer bond.
