TCS 7" Grinding Cup Wheel

The TCS 7 inch grinding cup wheel runs on a hand grinder for edge work, coating removal and profiling where a walk-behind machine cannot reach. It is offered in several configurations, including hybrid arrow, 12-1/4 inch PCD, 24 PCD, Megatron, Z Seg 25 soft, Arrow Seg 25 medium, turbo cutter and turbo fan.

The configuration is the decision, not the diameter. Broadly, PCD tooling is built for aggressive removal of coatings, glue and mastic. Segment and hybrid wheels move between removal and profiling depending on the segment and bond. Turbo styles cut and smooth. Bond hardness has to be matched to the concrete, since soft bonds are generally used on hard concrete and harder bonds on soft concrete, and getting that backwards means a wheel that glazes over or one that wears out in a morning.

Edge work is also where floors get ruined. A hand grinder concentrates a lot of removal in a small area, so the goal is to match the edge profile to the field the walk-behind machine leaves. An edge ground more aggressively than the field shows as a dark or textured border once the coating goes down, and that border is visible from the doorway forever.

Run it with a shroud and a dust extractor. Dry grinding concrete generates respirable crystalline silica, and hand grinding puts the operator's head right next to the cut. Call 817-676-6793 with your machine, your slab and what you are removing and we will match the right configuration rather than guessing from a list.
