Cutting Face Grinding Wheels
Action SuperAbrasive manufactures custom cutting face grinding wheels for precision surface grinding, face grinding, insert manufacturing, tool production, and hard material processing.
Our diamond and CBN face grinding wheels are engineered to provide consistent contact across the grinding face, controlled material removal, and reliable dimensional accuracy. Available in multiple cup wheel configurations, abrasive specifications, bond systems, rim widths, and mounting arrangements, each wheel can be customized around your equipment and production requirements.
Whether your operation involves carbide inserts, technical ceramics, hardened steels, wear components, or other difficult to grind materials, our team can develop a wheel specification designed to improve grinding consistency, wheel life, and part quality.
What Are Centerless Grinding Wheels?
Centerless grinding wheels are precision-engineered abrasive tools used in centerless grinding machines to remove material from cylindrical components without the need for centers or fixtures. This process enables high-speed, high-accuracy grinding of parts such as:
- Shafts and pins
- Valve components
- Bearings
- Medical rods and implants
- Automotive and aerospace components
Unlike traditional grinding, centerless grinding supports continuous production with exceptional concentricity and surface finish control. The grinding wheel plays a critical role in determining cycle time, finish quality, and overall cost per part.
Industries We Serve
Our custom grinding wheels are used across a wide range of precision driven industries.
• Aerospace and defense
• Automotive manufacturing
• Medical device production
• Cutting tool manufacturing

We understand the strict quality and performance requirements of regulated and high precision industries.
Benefits of Superabrasive Cutting Face Grinding Wheels
Consistent Material Removal
A properly engineered abrasive rim helps maintain stable contact with the workpiece. This supports repeatable stock removal across production runs and reduces variation between completed parts.
Precise Surface Generation
Cutting face wheels are well suited for applications involving flat surfaces, controlled angles, insert faces, cutting edges, and other critical geometries. The cup shaped configuration also provides access and clearance around the grinding area.
Extended Wheel Life
Superabrasive grains provide excellent hardness and wear resistance. When the abrasive type, bond, concentration, and wheel geometry are matched to the application, the wheel can maintain its grinding characteristics through longer production intervals.
Improved Form Retention
Maintaining the wheel’s geometry is essential when grinding inserts, cutting tools, wear components, and other precision parts. Custom bond and abrasive specifications can help reduce unwanted wheel wear and preserve the required grinding profile.

At Action SuperAbrasive, we offer superior design, craftsmanship, formulation, and
customer service. As an ISO 9001 Certified company, we provide our customers with the
tailor-made solutions they require to excel.
Diamond Cutting Face Grinding Wheels
Diamond is commonly selected for grinding hard, brittle, and nonferrous materials. Its extreme hardness makes it particularly effective for grinding carbide and advanced ceramic components.
Common materials for diamond face grinding wheels include:
• Tungsten carbide
• Cemented carbide
• Technical ceramics
• Glass
• Quartz
• Ferrites
• Composite materials
• PCD and other superhard tool materials
• Carbide wear components
• Nonferrous hard materials
Diamond cutting face wheels are frequently used in carbide insert manufacturing, ceramic component production, tool grinding, edge preparation, and the finishing of wear resistant parts.
Diamond is generally not recommended for grinding many ferrous materials because the interaction between diamond and iron at grinding temperatures can accelerate abrasive wear. CBN is typically the preferred superabrasive for hardened steels and other ferrous alloys.
