Norton 076607-88240 Bench Grinding Wheel 6x3/4x1 Medium

Product Description

The NORTON 076607-88240 is a Type 1 straight bench and pedestal grinding wheel designed for general-purpose metal grinding and tool dressing applications. Built from standard aluminum oxide abrasive in a medium grit grade, this wheel delivers consistent stock removal on ferrous metals, tool steel, and similar workshop materials. It measures 6 inches in diameter, 3/4 inches wide, with a 1-inch arbor bore, and is rated for a maximum operating speed of 4,140 RPM. At 1.781 pounds, it fits standard 6-inch bench grinders and pedestal grinders used in maintenance, fabrication, and machine shops.

This wheel is suited for maintenance technicians, machinists, fabricators, and trade professionals who need reliable edge dressing, deburring, and light shaping of metal parts. The medium grit formulation balances material removal rate with surface finish, making it appropriate for general tool reconditioning, weld cleanup, and part preparation on common shop benches and floor-mounted pedestal grinder setups.
