These radius platens have relief milled on either end so that the belt wont contact and will generate less heat. They are CNC machined from billet, cold rolled 1018 steel. They are then professionally case hardened to 59-62 Rc at a depth of .05 inches. This hard and abrasion resistant layer allows the platen to withstand heavy grinding while maintaining its proper shape.
Important size example: A 72 inch configuration mimics a 72 inch diameter grinding wheel.
Width = 2.00 in.
Length = 7.75 and 9.00 in. available
2 built in 1/4-20 bolt spacings at 6 and 6.75 inches to match most grinders. The 9 inch platens have a third set of holes at an 8 inch spacing. (Please check fitment to your grinder)

Radius platens generate a lot of friction and heat. It is highly recommended you run a magnetic, water cooled heatsink in conjunction with your radius platen.
