Norton 076607-88246 Bench Grinding Wheel 6x3/4x1 60 Grit

Product Description

The NORTON 076607-88246 is a high-speed bench and pedestal grinding wheel designed for use on standard bench grinders and pedestal grinder stands. Constructed from white aluminum oxide abrasive, this wheel delivers consistent stock removal and a refined finish on ferrous metals, tool steels, and hardened workpieces. It measures 6 inches in diameter, 3/4 inches wide, and carries a 1-inch arbor bore. The medium 60-grit abrasive grade balances cutting speed with surface finish, making it a practical choice for general-purpose tool grinding, sharpening, and light deburring. Maximum rated speed is 4140 RPM. Licensed trades and tool-room operators rely on this wheel for everyday bench grinder maintenance tasks.

This wheel is suited for use in machine shops, maintenance facilities, fabrication shops, and tool rooms. It fits standard 6-inch bench grinders and pedestal grinders with a 1-inch arbor. Typical applications include sharpening drill bits, chisels, lathe tools, and other cutting edges, as well as light shaping of ferrous metal parts. The white aluminum oxide composition makes it particularly well-suited for grinding high-speed steel and other heat-sensitive tool materials where cooler cutting action is important.

Key Features

• White aluminum oxide abrasive for cooler cutting on hardened tool steels and high-speed steel
• Medium 60-grit grade balances aggressive stock removal with acceptable surface finish
• Rated to 4140 RPM maximum for safe use on standard bench and pedestal grinders
• 6-inch diameter with 3/4-inch face width and 1-inch arbor bore fits common bench grinder configurations
• High-speed wheel designation confirms suitability for standard bench grinder operating speeds

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit grinding wheel for standard 6-inch bench grinders and pedestal grinders accepting a 1-inch arbor bore. Verify that the grinder nameplate RPM rating does not exceed 4140 RPM before mounting.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or maintenance technician familiar with abrasive wheel safety. Always power down and lock out the grinder before removing or mounting any grinding wheel. Inspect the wheel for cracks or chips using a ring test before mounting, and never exceed the maximum rated speed of 4140 RPM stamped on the wheel. ANSI B11.9 and applicable OSHA standards govern safe use of bench and pedestal grinders and should be consulted prior to installation and operation.
