imagine a chocolate chip cookie. The cookie is made of two main parts:
The chocolate chips (the hard, important part).
The cookie dough (it holds the chips together).
A grinding wheel from a brand like Supreme Abrasive works the same way:
The Abrasive Grains are like the chocolate chips. These are the super-hard, sharp bits (often diamond or other minerals) that do the actual cutting and grinding.
The Resin Bond Diamond Wheel is like the cookie dough. It's a special, tough glue made from synthetic resins that holds all the sharp grains together.
So, what does the Resin Bond do?
Its job is smart: it holds the sharp grains firmly, but it also wears away slowly.
As you use the wheel, the sharp grains eventually get dull. The resin bond is designed to break down just enough to release these dull grains, which lets new, sharp grains underneath pop out and start working.
This "self-sharpening" action means the wheel keeps cutting effectively for a long time.
