Home › Forums › Beginners questions › Grinding wheel adapter
I want to make an adapter for this 250mm grinding wheel. It has a 76.2mm diameter hole. The grinder arbor is 19mm. Can I make it from aluminium instead of steel? It would be easier to machine it. The wheel weight is ~1.5kg and speed is 2900RPM .

As long as the adapter doesn’t extend outside the cardboard on the stone it should be fine
