1FF1 Diamond Wheels

1FF1 Diamond Wheels are full radius diamond grinding wheel designed for precision grinding a concave radius in your part. 1FF1 also can be manufactured with a flat in the center with radius corners.

Key Features

• Shape: Straight wheel with radius corners
• Bond Types: resin bond,
• Grit Size: Ranges from coarse (for high material removal) to fine (for precision finishing).
• Diamond Concentration: Adjusted to balance tool life and cutting speed.

Machines That Commonly Use 1FF1 Diamond Wheels

1. CNC Tool & Cutter Grinders

Used for:

• Carbide tool fluting
• Creating narrow slots or reliefs
• Forming sharp cutting edges

Typical machines:

• Walter Helitronic
• ANCA
• Rollomatic
• Schneeberger
• EWAG (for carbide tools)

2. Surface Grinders (Slotting or Thin-Cut Applications)

Used for:

• Cutting grooves in carbide
• Precision trimming of ceramic or carbide parts
• Edge preparation and micro-grinding

Often used with:

• Harig
• Okamoto
• Chevalier
• Mitsui surface grinders

3. Jig Grinders

Used for:

• Ultra-precise ID/OD steps
• Narrow carbide slots
• Micro-finishing hard materials

Typical grinders:

• Moore jig grinders

4. Optical Profile Grinders

Used for:

• Micro-geometry
• Optical components
• Very fine slotting and shaping

Machines like:

• Wasino / Amada Optical Profile Grinders
• Waida grinders

5. Specialized Carbide Cutoff / Slitting Stations

Used for:

• Cutting carbide blanks
• Separating inserts
• Creating precision grooves

Often found in high-volume carbide production lines.

Materials Commonly Ground With 1FF1 Wheels

• Carbide
• Ceramics (Alumina, Zirconia, Silicon Nitride)
• Cermet
• Graphite
• PCD/PCBN prep work

Advantages

A 1FF1 diamond wheel is mainly used on:

• CNC tool grinders
• Surface grinders
• Jig grinders
• Optical profile grinders
• Slotting/cutoff machines

Anywhere a thin, precise, high-accuracy cut or slot is required, the 1FF1 profile is a top choice.
