Construction
CabKing diamond grinding wheels are manufactured using the highest quality diamonds to provide you a longer grinding life and clean, faster cutting. They are nickel electroplated using commercial grade diamonds uniformly throughout the entire width of the wheel, making them more durable and aggressive than silicon carbide wheels while giving you excellent quality and results. All wheels are made with a plastic center core which puts less stress on machine bearings when compared to wheels with steel hubs because they are lighter. Wheels can also be ordered with a steel core which is heavier but offer more torque capability. You can extend the life of your diamond wheels with the optional use of 412 Slick Lube diamond tool lubricant.
