141 forum posts 1 photos	I am having difficulty in finding a fine grit wheel for my 3000rpm bench grinder. I want to get a fine finish on HSS lathe tools so I guess I need an 80 grit, 125 x 16 (or a bit more) wide and to fit a 13mm shaft. Does anyone know of a supplier? Thanks

Something similar to an A60K5V would do. Your local engineers' suppliers should be able to get you one and the washers. regards David

They have been in use now for a couple of years with no problems. Les. Edited By Les Jones 1 on 01/08/2012 17:30:04
