Hotshoein4 (Mark) Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 I've looked and looked and can't find what I'm looking for. Where can I find thread extensions for my bench grinder. I'd like to be able to run a 4" wide wheel. All I can find is the shaft extension, but that won't allow the use of a wide wheel, just makes the work piece farther from the grinder which is also handy. Any ideas?

ThomasPowers Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Do you plan to upgrade the motor and bearings too? Those things are generally designed for a specific range of sizes and exceeding that range may not be a good idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotshoein4 (Mark) Posted September 1, 2017 Author Share Posted September 1, 2017 No upgrades. It's going on a 1/2hp baldor buffer. It should have plenty of power and the bearings are usually great in those machines. I shouldn't have been so vague. It's going to be a scotch-brite wheel. 4" wide 6" diameter, so pretty light and easy to turn. It should be easier to turn than a 6" expander wheel and mutli tool attachment that is already on it. Going to pull 1 side off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
