Where to buy 6" Cup Grinding Wheels - UK
« on: April 04, 2012, 03:29:20 AM »
Hi there,

Im having problems sourcing the above for my Kennet. Cromwell Tools dont have them listed, Chronos cant supply and wait to hear from RDG.

Can anyone help please,

Thanks.

nearest is 150 mm



but you have not given any info e.g. speed bore grit type


try here http://www.pbrabrasives.com

or http://punchout.buckandhickman.com



but beware   I needed a 100 mm cup wheel but the t/c does 5200 rpm  some offer 4500 rpm so know your speed

Here could be something to look at if you grind carbide (solid or tipped):

Hello Nick,

Have you tried Abtec4Abrasives.

I use them fairly regularly, they often send out discount offers as well.
