Swedish manufacturer Tormek has developed diamond grind wheels of three different grit sizes for water cooled Tormek grinders with wheel diameter of 200mm (for models T-4, T-3 and older types). Thanks to slow revolutions of grinder and diamond abrasive of wheel you can grind dry without heating up the material being ground. You can also grind with water which will result in longer life of wheel and even better results (smoother bevels). Wheels are extremely resilient to wear and tear and their diameter does not change. That means there is no need to flatten the wheel in future like with corundum abrasive. With diamond wheels you can also use the side for sharpening flat bevels which will be appreciated especially during sharpening of woodcarvers and carpenters chisels, planes irons and knives.  

- Coarsest variant of the diamond wheel
- Diamond grit: F360 (JIS 700)
- For fast material removal during initial shaping or repairs
- Can be used for any material (steel, carbides and ceramic)
- Compatible with T-4, T-3 and older models with wheel diameter of 200mm.
- Supplied with 150ml of anti-corrosion concentrate (for wet grinding)
- Wheel diameter: 200 mm
- Wheel width: 40 mm
- Center hole diameter: 12 mm
- Official Czech distribution

For grinding on wheel side, we recommend use of Multi Base Tormek MB-100 that gives excellent support to individual Tormek jigs.

Note:
1) For grinding with water always use the anti corrosion concentrate (10ml of concentrate for 250ml of water). Mix the solution first, then pour it in the through. If you want to keep the solution till next sharpening, lower the through in such way that the wheel is not sitting in (or touching) the water.
2) Always use only light pressure. Diamond grits are extremely sharp and therefore sensitive to too much pressure.
3) At first the diamond wheel may seem more aggressive. That is normal; it’s a process during which the diamond grit stabilizes. This should only last for the first 2-5 grindings.
4) Never use the Truing Tool TT-50 for diamond wheels
