Description:
The Nickel Plated Wheel 8" Grit 180 is a diamond grinding wheel made with SW Diamond Products proprietary diamond plating process, where industrial diamond abrasive is permanently bonded to the wheel surface through nickel electroplating. This nickel plated construction produces a long lasting cutting surface with consistent diamond exposure for steady, predictable grinding performance. The 180 grit grade is used after coarse shaping steps when you need controlled material removal with a cleaner scratch pattern, making it a strong choice for refining forms in coldworking workflows that support lampworking, fusing, and hot shop work. It is commonly used to true edges, refine contours, and prepare glass for the next stages of smoothing and polishing.
How it is used:
- Refine and true edges on glass components after cutting, flameworking, or kilnforming
- Shape and clean up contours on coldworked glass where a smoother finish than coarse grit is needed
- Remove saw marks and grinding lines left by lower grit wheels before stepping up to finer grits
- Grind stone and glass in lapidary applications where controlled stock removal is required
- Run wet on a lapidary grinder to improve wheel performance, extend wheel life, and reduce airborne dust
Dimensions:
- 8" diameter
- 1.5" wide
- 1" arbor hole with standard bushings available
