The 35 concentration matrix is highly effective for wet-cutting applications where preventing material thermal shock or tool loading is critical. It is ideal for slicing, dicing, and slotting hard, brittle, and abrasive materials such as:
Technical Ceramics (Alumina, Zirconia, Silicon Nitride)
Quartz, Optical Glass, and Fused Silica
Semiconductors, Silicon Wafers, and Gallium Arsenide
Sapphire, Rubies, and Crystals
Carbites, Ferrites, and Magnetic Materials
Hard geological specimens and petrographic core samples
Featuring a highly versatile 1.25" center hole, this wheel is compatible with a wide range of standard industrial and workshop machinery, including:
Precision toolroom surface grinders equipped with wet-cutting setups
Industrial slicing and dicing saws
Metallographic and petrographic laboratory saws
Specialized CNC grinding, slotting, and cutoff machines
Status: New Old Stock (NOS) — This wheel is brand new, unmounted, and has never been used.
Cosmetic Details: Due to extended storage in an industrial warehouse environment, the wheel shows surface debris, light oxidation on the metal hub and diamond section, and superficial scratches on the metal core (visible in the provided photos).
Performance: These cosmetic issues are purely visual blemishes from long-term shelf life and will not affect the wheel's cutting performance, structural integrity, or lifetime.
