1A1R 
Cylindrical shapes with side relief
As above, but used for deep cut applications such as creepfeed where side contact is not allowed or where maximum coolant access is required.

14A1 
Cylindrical shapes with tapered body
Typically used in slotting applications where the U dimension is not wide enough for adequate stiffness in the grinding wheel body.
