Tornado Jr. 8" Diameter CBN, 12 mm Arbor
Designed to run on grinders that require a 12 mm arbor, the Tornado Jr. will fit well with the Tormek T-4 because of it's 8 inch diameter and 1.5 inch width. It also offers 1 inch of usable flat area with CBN down on both sides beside the edge surface, similar to our popular Mega Square wheel design. This wheel is great for non-hollow grind applications such as sharpening skews or flattening the back of chisels. Because we use 6061 Aluminum, this beast of a wheel only weighs in at 4 lbs, 10 oz. In addition, 6061 is a great heat sink where 70% of the heat generated by sharpening goes into the wheel, making water unnecessary.
**CBN wheels CAN run in water ONLY if dried very well immediately after use or if a corrosion-resistant material is used. WATER CAN CAUSE CORROSION. Use of these wheels in water can void the lifetime warranty if not properly cared for when used wet.
