» Vitrified Grinding Wheel

Correct storage of vitrified grinding wheel
Vitrified bonded grinding wheels are not sensitive to atmospheric influences. Due to their fragility, they are however very sensitive to impact, because this causes cracks that are undetectable by the human eye, but may cause grinding wheel rupture at the beginning of work.
Grinding wheels should be stored on wooden shelves that prevent rolling. The shelves need to be designed such that various grinding tool types can be arranged on them simple and safer manner. Easy and safe removal of grinding tools from the shelves should also be ensured, while maintaining the stability of those remaining on the shelves.
