Jet 8881892/8176468 Bench Grinder 6 Inch 115V with Stand

Product Description

The JET 8881892/8176468 is a single-phase bench grinder built for shop and trade use. It accepts a 6-inch diameter grinding wheel with a 3/4-inch wheel width and a 1/2-inch arbor hole. The motor runs on 115 volts, single phase, and spins the wheel at up to 3,450 RPM. This unit ships with a stand included, making it a ready-to-run setup without sourcing a separate base. Machinists, fabricators, maintenance technicians, and tool-and-die workers rely on bench grinders like this for sharpening, deburring, and shaping metal stock. The combination of wheel speed and wheel diameter suits both light touch-up work and sustained material removal.

This bench grinder is suited to light industrial and heavy-duty shop environments where a freestanding grinding station is needed. The included stand positions the grinder at a working height appropriate for standing operation, reducing the need for a dedicated workbench surface. It is a practical fit for maintenance shops, fabrication facilities, and trade apprenticeship programs that need a reliable, straightforward grinding setup running on standard 115-volt single-phase power.

Installation Notes

Installation and operation should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with grinder safety practices and applicable OSHA standards for abrasive wheel machinery. Verify wheel blotter, flange, and arbor nut are properly seated and torqued per the wheel manufacturer's instructions before powering the unit. Always inspect the grinding wheel for cracks or damage before each use and allow the grinder to reach full speed before applying workpiece contact. Ensure the grinder is connected to a properly grounded 115-volt outlet and that wheel guards are in place before operation.
