where to find 7" twisted wire wheel

[bobcatdan]

That is if they exist. I have a 7" bench grinder I currently run a 6" wheel on. It works but is noticable smaller. I have found one standard non twisted wheel I think from grainger. I have looked everywhere I can think of. I guess my question is two fold. I have a 6" block, older with open guards. Could there be an advange to running a coarser and fine wire wheels on the block and two differnt grit wheels on the 7"? I consider a bench grinder a rough in tool and run the coarses wheels I can find.

MSCdirect.com should have about anything you want to look for. There catalog is about 5,000 pages and weighs a ton. Over night shipping to a lot of locations at ground rates. They also usually have two or three price ranges, China, import, USA made for instance. Take your pick. I have had good success with import mid price lines..

I have found those online, but I prefer the twisted style. The standard style seems to throw wires after while. Is my problem buying hardware store grade wire wheels, would I notice a difference buying one ment for industry?
