FAQ

Q: What is a 6x6 Wheel Lapidary Stainless Steel Arbor?

A 6x6 wheel lapidary stainless steel arbor is a specific arbor (shaft) designed for use with lapidary grinding wheels that have a 6-inch diameter and a 6-inch width. It's typically made from stainless steel for durability and resistance to rust.
Q: What are the Advantages of a Stainless Steel Arbor?
Durability: Stainless steel is a strong and long-lasting material, well-suited for the stresses of lapidary work. Rust Resistance: Stainless steel resists rust and corrosion, which is important for tools that come into contact with water during lapidary grinding.
Q: Is a 6x6 wheel lapidary stainless steel arbor right for me?
If you have a lapidary grinder that uses 6-inch diameter grinding wheels with a 6-inch width and requires a stainless steel arbor, then this would be a suitable choice. Here are some additional factors to consider: Arbor Size: Double-check the arbor's shaft diameter (e.g., 1/2" or 5/8") to ensure it fits your grinder. Number of Wheels: If you plan to use multiple grinding wheels, you might need additional arbors.
Q: What are Lapidary Grinding Wheels?
Lapidary grinding wheels are abrasive wheels used for shaping, grinding, and polishing gemstones, rocks, minerals, and other hard materials. They come in various grits (levels of coarseness) to achieve different stages of grinding and polishing.
Q: What are some things to consider when using a 6x6 wheel lapidary stainless steel arbor?
Compatibility: Ensure the arbor's diameter and width (likely 1/2" or 5/8") are compatible with your lapidary grinder and the grinding wheels you plan to use. Safety: Always wear appropriate safety gear such as eye protection, gloves, and a respirator when using lapidary equipment. Mounting: Make sure the grinding wheel is securely mounted on the arbor following the manufacturer's instructions. Water Flow: Depending on your lapidary setup, you might need a water flow to cool the grinding wheel and workpiece during operation.
