摘要

An abrasive segment can include an inner segment portion, an outer segment portion, and a central segment portion connected thereto. The inner segment portion can include an inner circumferential wall and an outer circumferential wall. Leading and trailing radial sidewalls can extend between the inner circumferential wall and the outer circumferential wall opposite each other. The outer segment portion can include an inner circumferential wall and an outer circumferential wall. Leading and trailing radial sidewalls can extend between the inner circumferential wall and the outer circumferential wall opposite each other. The central segment portion can include a leading radial sidewall and a trailing radial sidewall. The leading radial sidewall of the central segment portion can establish an acute angle, α, with respect to the outer circumferential wall of the inner segment portion and an obtuse angle, β, with respect the inner circumferential wall of the outer segment portion.
