Norton 076607-88281 Bench Grinding Wheel 8x1x1 60 Grit

Product Description

The NORTON 076607-88281 is a high-speed bench and pedestal grinding wheel designed for use on stationary bench grinders and pedestal grinder stands. Constructed from white aluminum oxide abrasive, this wheel delivers consistent, cool-cutting performance suited to sharpening, shaping, and deburring ferrous metals and tool steels. It measures 8 inches in diameter, 1 inch wide, and carries a 1-inch arbor bore. The medium 60-grit rating provides a balance between material removal rate and surface finish. Maximum operating speed is rated at 3,600 RPM. Installation and dressing are handled by machinists, tool-and-die workers, and maintenance technicians.

This wheel is suited for light industrial and shop maintenance applications requiring precise edge work on high-speed steel tooling, drill bits, chisels, and similar cutting implements. The white aluminum oxide formulation runs cooler than standard gray aluminum oxide wheels, reducing the risk of heat-related metallurgical damage to hardened tool edges. Typical installation is on bench grinder spindles in manufacturing facilities, machine shops, and maintenance departments.

Key Features

• White aluminum oxide abrasive for cool-cutting performance on hardened steels
• Medium 60-grit rating balances stock removal with surface finish quality
• Rated to 3,600 RPM maximum operating speed
• 8-inch diameter with 1-inch width and 1-inch arbor bore
• Compatible with standard bench and pedestal grinder spindle configurations

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit replacement-style grinding wheel for standard bench and pedestal grinders accepting an 8 x 1 x 1 inch wheel with a 1-inch arbor bore.

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 mounting or removing a wheel. Inspect the wheel for cracks or chips before installation using the ring test, and never exceed the rated maximum RPM printed on the wheel blotter. OSHA 29 CFR 1910.215 governs the safe use of abrasive bench grinders in general industry.
