Grier Abrasives B-TB-6 Telescoping Wheel Bushing

Product Description

The GRIER ABRASIVES B-TB-6 is a telescoping wheel bushing designed to adapt grinding or abrasive wheels to multiple arbor bore sizes. The telescoping design allows a single bushing to fit multiple inner diameter configurations, including 1/2 inch, 5/8 inch, 3/4 inch, and 1 inch bore sizes. The outside diameter measures 1.25 inches and the bushing thickness is 15/16 inch (0.9375 inches). This type of bushing is a standard consumable used by grinding wheel installers, maintenance technicians, and abrasive tooling professionals to ensure proper wheel seating and concentricity on angle grinders, bench grinders, and similar equipment.

The B-TB-6 is suited for use in industrial maintenance, fabrication shops, and trade environments where abrasive wheels with varying bore sizes must be mounted to fixed-arbor machines. The telescoping feature eliminates the need to stock multiple single-size bushings for common arbor sizes. It is appropriate for use with bench grinders, pedestal grinders, and similar rotating abrasive equipment where consistent wheel fit is required.

Installation Notes

Wheel bushings of this type are installed by maintenance technicians or abrasive tooling professionals. Always power down and de-energize the grinder and confirm the machine has come to a full stop before replacing any wheel or bushing. Follow the grinder manufacturer guidelines and applicable ANSI B7.1 safety standards for mounting abrasive wheels. Do not over-tighten the arbor flange nut, as excessive clamping force can damage the wheel or bushing.
