Default Cratex rubberized "grinding" wheel

I have 1" x 1/8". They are for small rotary tools.


Cratex has made large ones for grinders that took water flow
so people could grind rock edges. Steel is softer than the rock.

I found a 3" x 3/8 thick green (coarse) Cratex wheel at the dump. I
looked up Cratex on the web and found that they are primarily finishing
wheels, but I'm not sure where I would actually use it. Does anyone use
these? If so, what for?

They are so expensive that I've got to see why.

Thanks,
Bob
