Norton 076607-88280 Type 1 Bench Grinding Wheel 8x1x1

Product Description

The NORTON 076607-88280 is a Type 1 straight bench and pedestal grinding wheel designed for general-purpose metal grinding and sharpening applications. Built with aluminum oxide abrasive in a fine grit, this wheel is suited for stock removal, edge dressing, and finishing on ferrous metals. It measures 8 inches in diameter, 1 inch wide, with a 1-inch arbor hole, and carries a maximum operating speed of 3,600 RPM. Licensed metalworkers, machinists, and tool-and-die professionals rely on this style of wheel for consistent cut rate and predictable wear on standard bench and pedestal grinders.

This wheel fits standard bench and pedestal grinder setups commonly found in machine shops, maintenance facilities, fabrication shops, and trade workshops. The fine grit designation makes it appropriate for finish grinding, light deburring, and tool sharpening where surface finish matters more than aggressive material removal. It is sold as an individual wheel unit.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or maintenance technician. Always power down and lock out the grinder before mounting or removing any wheel. Inspect the wheel visually and perform a ring test before mounting to check for cracks or damage. Ensure the arbor flanges, blotters, and guard clearances comply with ANSI B7.1 safety requirements for abrasive wheels before returning the grinder to service.
