Diamond Convex Carving Wheel

Achieving intricate designs and smooth finishes. The electroplated convex wheels ,it described are particularly useful for carving designs into various materials, including gemstones with uneven surfaces such as boulder opal.

These wheels are made of solid steel core or plastic core with a rounded outer rim that is coated with diamond particles. The diamond coating provides durability and ensures efficient grinding and polishing. The convex shape of the wheel allows for precise carving and shaping of curved edges, making it suitable for applications like carving, intarsia, channel work, stained glass, and more.

The available widths of 1/4", 1/2", and 1" offer versatility for creating narrow grooves or larger ones, depending on your specific needs. The variety of wheel diameters provides further options to suit different projects.

It's worth noting that these carving wheels are compatible with specific grinding machines. They can be used on the Titan machine, where all wheel sizes are compatible except for the 8" wheels. On the Genie machine, all wheel sizes except the 8" wheels can be used. The Pixie machine is limited to using the two and four-inch wheels only. Additionally, these wheels can be used on other grinding machines that have standard arbors.

The wheels are typically bored to 1" and come with Reducing Bushing Adapters to fit arbors of different sizes, including 3/4", 5/8", and 1/2".

In summary, these electroplated convex wheels with diamond coating are versatile tools for grinding, carving, and polishing gemstones and other materials. They offer precision and convenience for achieving curved edges, intricate designs, and smooth finishes in various applications.
