Norton 07660789086 Cut-off Wheel 8in Silicon Carbide

Product Description

The NORTON 07660789086 is a Type 1 (flat) silicon carbide cut-off wheel designed for cutting masonry and similar hard, abrasive materials. At 8 inches in diameter and 1/8 inch thick, it spins up to 7,640 RPM on compatible circular saws. The resinoid bond holds the 24-grit silicon carbide abrasive together under cutting loads, and both sides of the wheel are reinforced for added strength during operation. The 5/8-inch arbor hole fits standard circular saw spindles. Masonry contractors, tile setters, and general construction tradespeople are the primary users of this wheel.

This cut-off wheel is rated for masonry applications, including concrete, brick, block, tile, and similar non-metallic materials. It is intended for use with circular saws where the arbor matches the 5/8-inch hole size and the tool is rated for at least the wheel diameter. The flat Type 1 profile suits straight, plunge, and partition cuts typical in masonry work on residential and commercial job sites.
