looking for green silicone carbide stones

[Pepperidge]

I have a grinding wheel made of green silicone carbide for a bench grinder to sharpen "green teeth" for a stump grinder...not sure if they make them or not, but I was wondering if they made them for anything more portable like a hand grinder or air tool grinder or something...

Thanks

Paul that is a lapidary grade green wheel. It sheds granules of grit slightly faster than a gray wherl thisvallows the silicone carbide to stay cleaner thereby exposing more sharp silicon carbide edges to grind faster and cleaner. You will probably get it from any lapidary supply. I get mine from Santa Fe jewelry sipply. Yes my nee hobby is rockhoundvand amatuer jeweler!

so they make em' for die grinders, air grinders etc?

just seeing if I can sharpen the teeth while they are still on the stump grinder instead of removing all of them to do so...

something like this they sell...it says miniature...but what size would they be?

I wonder how long one would last as opposed to just using the grinding wheel we have on a bench grinder...

I'd like something that would fit a die grinder or maybe an angle grinder...

Check with Roark Supply. http://www.roarksupply.com/
He has alot of abrasives. Silicon Carbide comes in many grades. It's what I specified years ago to sharpen meat slicing knives my company uses. Don't have any for high speed sharpening though. SC comes in flap wheels too IIRC.

That's why I posted it here in his personal forum...:hihi:

It probably would be better to just call him though..
