P 28, New wheel.

[Jesse]

For all those who run the P28 or P26 and are unhappy with replacing clutches and belts if some one can do a link to Ebay item 121184508127 I think this wheel will prove to be the business, 900s would be my choice, nice wheel if I still had the P28 I'd be buying one.

thats a lot of machining for your money what kind of steel is it

Don't know, but like you say thats a lot of wheel for the money, and its the sort of wheel I was hopping to build for my old p28 but the costs were to much, I also looked at Leonardi Tree Care - Leonardi Manufacturing Inc. m1 silver and m1 gold but as it would have invalidated my warranty on my new machine I didn't pursue it any further, they will post from the USA, just thought those on here who run a P26 or 28 or a 38 may be interested. The holes in the wheel let you see the stump as you grind it.

the wheel for our grinder cost 25 without machining and that was a one off made from alloy steel like the new green wheel in shape

are the straight cutters set out further with a longer pcd

[Jesse]

Thanks for that, they do appear to have the pockets set at different settings, I would just have gone for even distance and diameter locations for pockets and just been happy to get a wheel machined to take Greenteeth, but it looks like they have tried and tested it and its evolved into what you see on Ebay.

when i done the machining for ours i set the straight cutters out by 8 mm to increase the cutting width

It is a bit of a science but my take was I like the holes, to see the stump , as for settings I think it depends on Greenteeth size, bigger the tooth size less you will need but the more aggressive the wheel will become, standard p28 relies on only 2 cutters per wheel ,muli-tip, the rest just clear, and an unbalanced wheel, I thought 4 pairs of 900s even set the same on a even wheel would provide a well balanced wheel and do the job perfectly well without destroying belts and clutches at the rate that multi tips will, had the set up on a small grinder with 4 pairs of 500s and it smoked everything it touched , just wore me out a bit as well, pedestrian handlebar grinder. Hard work.
