Norton 07660701616 Aluminum Oxide Cutoff Wheel 4 in

Product Description

The NORTON 07660701616 is a Type 1 resinoid-bonded aluminum oxide cutoff wheel designed for aggressive cutting on steel and stainless steel. At 4 inches in diameter and 0.04 inches thick, this thin-kerf wheel minimizes material loss and heat buildup during each cut. The reinforced fiberglass construction on both sides supports operation up to 15,280 RPM, providing consistent performance on stationary abrasive cutting equipment. Licensed tradespeople and shop technicians use this wheel for precise, fast cutoff work on ferrous and stainless materials without introducing excessive heat distortion to the workpiece.

This cutoff wheel is suited for use with stationary cutting tools in fabrication shops, maintenance facilities, and job-site cutting stations. Its 5/8-inch arbor hole fits standard stationary tool spindles. The black resinoid bond and aluminum oxide grain combination is well matched to cutting mild steel bar stock, angle iron, tube, and stainless steel profiles where clean, square cuts are required. The thin profile reduces drag and makes this wheel a practical choice for repetitive production cutting applications.

Key Features

• Aluminum oxide abrasive grain for effective cutting on steel and stainless steel
• Type 1 (flat) wheel profile for straight cutoff operations on stationary tools
• Resinoid bond provides strength and controlled grain release during cutting
• Both sides reinforced with fiberglass for structural integrity at rated speed
• 15,280 maximum RPM rating supports stationary tool applications
• Thin 0.04-inch kerf minimizes material removal and reduces heat input

Compatibility

Designed for use with stationary abrasive cutting tools equipped with a 5/8-inch spindle arbor. Rated for cutting steel and stainless steel per the Norton Metal Right Cut specification.

Installation Notes

Installation and wheel changes must be performed by a qualified operator following ANSI B7.1 safety standards for abrasive wheels. Always power down and lock out the tool before mounting or removing the wheel. Inspect the wheel for cracks or damage before each use and confirm the tool spindle speed does not exceed the 15,280 RPM maximum rating stamped on the wheel. Never use a cutoff wheel for side grinding or freehand operations outside its rated application.
