Deeper reach for slack belt grinding
Start your home built grinder project off with a rock solid backing plate!
- D-shaped backing plate for flat platen assembly, this one with even deeper reach for slack belt grinding.
- The plate is precision cnc cut from 1/2″ aircraft aluminum.
- Wheel mounting holes are 1/2-13 precision tapped to ensure that axles are perpendicular to the plate.
- The center mounting hole is 1/2″ diameter, the slots for a flat platen mounting bracket are 1/4″ wide & 6″ apart, the u-shaped adjusting slot accepts a 3/8″ bolt or stud.
- The axle holes are 10.5″ center to center apart; you can easily mount an 8″ long by 2-1/2″ wide flat platen between the wheels for a large grinding surface.
- We include 2 grade 8 bolts, 3,5″ long, 1/2-13 thread, with 4 nylon spacers, 2 1/2″ washers & 2 half-nyloc nuts.
- With this listing we also include two of our 2″ diameter, 2-1/4″ wide top quality cnc turned tracking wheels with bearings.
- These are the same parts as we use on our 2×72″ belt grinders.
- Also available without wheels.
