Norton 61463610398 Silicon Carbide Dressing Stick 220 Grit

Product Description

The NORTON 61463610398 is a square silicon carbide dressing stick designed for conditioning and truing grinding wheels in machine shop and industrial grinding applications. At 220 grit, it falls in the very fine grade range, making it suited for precision dressing work where controlled material removal and wheel face refinement are the priority. The vitrified bond construction provides a rigid, consistent cutting action that holds grit exposure steady during use. This stick measures 6 x 1 x 1 inches and weighs approximately 1 pound. It is the standard choice for machinists and grinding technicians who need to restore wheel geometry or open up a glazed wheel face.

This dressing stick is used on superabrasive wheels and vitrified bond grinding wheels in precision grinding operations. Typical applications include surface grinders, cylindrical grinders, and tool and cutter grinders found in job shops, manufacturing facilities, and maintenance departments. It is well suited for dressing CBN and diamond wheel faces as well as conventional vitrified aluminum oxide and silicon carbide wheels. The square stick profile allows controlled contact and predictable wear across the wheel face during the dressing pass.

Key Features

• Silicon carbide abrasive material for effective dressing of superabrasive and vitrified wheels
• Vitrified bond provides rigid, consistent grit exposure during dressing passes
• Square stick profile enables controlled, even contact with the wheel face
• 6 x 1 x 1 inch dimensions fit standard dressing stick holders and manual use
• Black coloring consistent with silicon carbide grain identification

Compatibility

Designed for use on superabrasive wheels and vitrified bond grinding wheels. Suitable for dressing operations on surface, cylindrical, and tool and cutter grinding equipment that accepts a 1 x 1 inch square dressing stick profile.

Installation Notes

Dressing sticks are used by qualified machinists and grinding equipment operators. Power down and lock out the grinder before inspecting or mounting the wheel, then bring the machine to operating speed before making dressing contact. Keep the stick firmly supported against the tool rest or dressing fixture during use to maintain consistent contact angle. Do not apply excessive pressure against the wheel face, as this can load or crack the stick.
