I don't have any for sharpening chains. Use a lot of their wheels for grinding engine valves, gears, etc.
Can you identify this CBN wheel???

Yes I hi have the white sticks and I did use them on it, didn't help that much
I believe mine is an 80-grit
Does your wheel cut like other diamond wheels????
No problem in the number, but it seems he is the guy to call!!!
I never used any other CBN,ABN or DIAMOND wheels, so I can't say how this one compares..
It works great for me though..
Talked to Kevin this afternoon...great guy, and he actually answered his phone !!
sooo...what he say
He said a lot, I think he's the guy I originally set up my acct with in 2009...
He knows his chitt, and actually cares what he's doing..
I can't get a picture of my wheel right now cause my batteries are dead in my camera,,, but it looke identical to yours..
Do they make them in different sizes? I would like to find one that I could use on both .325 and 3/8"Picco. Not sure if that can work or not. I can't see buying two for what these things cost.
Hey Duane,
For .325----.404 you would use the 3/16" wheel, I think the picco would need the 1/8" wheel..
I use the 1/8" wheel for 1/4, .325, and 3/8LP, 3/16" wheel for full 3/8 and .404.
Baileys says 1/8" for 1/4 and .325, 3/16 for 3/8 and .404 but do not specifically say anything about 3/8 LP.
I also have a lot of old McCulloch .354 chain and it looks like either would work.

Lotta. Guys, Including me, don't like the profile left on a .325 tooth when using a 1/8" wheel..
It will sharpen it though..

If the sticks clean or not depends on how the wheel is bonded.
The ABN wheels I believe are nickel bonded and ultrasonic or a recommended cleaner.
The resiniod bonded wheel like Showerguy has used the white cleaning sticks. The one that came with my latest wheel they say to get wet before use.
News to me!!!! But I'm old.
The resinoid wheels should look dull. Steel imbedded in the surface makes them shined and cut hotter.
Do you mean a pretty aggressive hook?
Well, sorta, it sharpens the side plate, but does nothing for the gullet......
The 3/16 does top, side, and gullet in one swoop.....
I agree with that...
I do however use the 1/8 wheels when the cutter wears back towards the end of the chains life...
I just used the us diamond wheel (which is a hair bigger than 1/8), on a 3/8 chain that is at the end of its life....I was cutting some huge white oak and it cut great...
So what method would be correct for this US diamond wheel...
What do you use @showrguy yo clean your whee like mine??
That one you clean with an ultrasonic cleaner or some solvent.
What solvent...I don't have a ultra sonic cleaner
