About POWERTEC 15508 1/2" Arbor 150-Grit Silicon Carbide Grinding Wheel
Overall Feedback:
71% positive
68% appreciated its long-lasting durability, though 32% found it wore out quickly.
I am satisfied with the durability of the product and will not buy high-end junk again that costs more than these wheels.
The wheel I use is much better than the aluminium oxide wheel for grinding hard materials like tungsten and can even produce a needle-sharp end.
The wheel's durability is affected due to warping.
After 3 hours of use, I had to replace the worn-out wheel.
66% found it easy to mount and balance, while 34% had difficulties.
I am concerned that the grinding wheel could potentially self-destruct during use, which would be a negative experience.

I have attached a video to show the grinding wheel's bad wobble as it spins down.
The grinding wheel wears down fast and lasts only for six months. The material is very soft but it still grinds.

67% liked the minimal vibration, but 33% experienced excessive vibration.
I had a problem with vibration while using the grinder wheels due to the cheap plastic arbors. I tried to balance them out but it didn't work.
The vibration level was terrible.
I tried other wheels which were dangerous due to wobbling and vibration.
The wheel's high vibration level causes it to spew grit into my face and shave down quickly.
