confused about different grinding wheels
hi, can anybody help me with a simple guide to what grinding wheels to use for what types of steel?
(is the colour of the wheel the definitive guide?)
the steels that I need to work with are:
1. Tool steel lathe cutting tools
2.Tungsten tipped lathe cutting tools
3. Tig welding wires
Thanks

1. Tool steel lathe cutting tools
These can be ground with any grey, white or blue grinding wheels but the best type of wheel s Cubic Boron Nitride (CBN) as this wheel does not need to be dress and grinds cooler than ceramic/stone wheel.
2.Tungsten tipped lathe cutting tools
3. Tig welding wires
