Norton 614636-87185 Round Edge Sharpening Stone CS44

Product Description

The NORTON 614636-87185 is a round edge India sharpening stone designed for hand-tool honing and edge maintenance in trade and shop environments. Classified under model CS44, this vitrified slip stone measures 4.5 inches in length by 1.75 inches in width, with a thickness that ranges from 0.188 inches to 0.500 inches across its tapered profile. The coarse grit formulation removes metal quickly, making it suited for reconditioning dull or nicked edges before finish honing. Sold in cases of 20 units, this stone is a standard stocking item for tool rooms, maintenance shops, and field service kits.

This slip stone is used wherever hand-sharpening of curved or profiled cutting edges is required. Typical applications include sharpening gouges, chisels, carving tools, and similar implements with concave or convex edge geometries. The round edge profile allows the stone to access inside bevels and curved surfaces that flat bench stones cannot reach. It is commonly stocked by industrial supply operations and tool maintenance programs serving woodworking, metalworking, and general maintenance trades.

Installation Notes

Slip stones are used by hand and require no power tools or mechanical mounting. Apply a light honing oil or water to the stone surface before use to float swarf and protect the abrasive. Keep the stone clean between uses and store flat to prevent chipping. No electrical shutoff or code compliance is required for hand-sharpening stone use.
