ANDRE Flat Grinding Wheel 250mm x 25mm x 76mm 99A60K7VE01-35 White Type 1

On the shop floor, machinists reaching for a dependable wheel for surface and bench grinding often choose the ANDRE 250 mm flat grinding wheel. Its white fused aluminum oxide abrasive and medium 60 grit deliver a balanced cut on steel and cast iron, while the open structure and vitrified bond keep the wheel cool during longer passes.

Key specifications

• Wheel shape: Type 1 (straight)
• Outer diameter: 250 mm
• Thickness: 25 mm
• Bore diameter: 76 mm
• Abrasive: 99A white fused aluminum oxide
• Grit size: 60 (medium)

• Structure: 7 (open)
• Bond type: V (vitrified)
• Manufacturer series/code: VE01-35
• Mounting: arbor hole
• Colour: white

Why choose it

The 99A white abrasive is friable and self-sharpening, so it cuts cooler than standard aluminum oxide and reduces the risk of burning heat-sensitive steels. The open structure provides good chip clearance, making it suitable for general-purpose flat grinding where finish and wheel life must be balanced.

Ideal use cases

• Surface grinding of steel and cast iron workpieces
• Bench and pedestal grinding for tool maintenance
• General-purpose ferrous metal grinding in job shops and maintenance departments

Good to know

Always follow the machine manufacturer’s maximum operating speed and inspect the wheel for damage before mounting. Use proper flanges and blotters, and store wheels flat in a dry area to prevent warping.
