CBN grinding wheels are super-abrasive grinding wheels with hardness second only to diamond grinding wheels, and are known for their compatibility with metals, including iron. Although the term "metal" covers a very wide range, here we will focus on iron-containing workpieces, such as carbon tool steel, high-speed steel, alloy tool steel, chromium steel, chromium molybdenum steel, nickel-chromium steel, and stainless steel.
