Norton 61463643227 Rectangle Polishing Stone 180 Grit

Product Description

The NORTON 61463643227 is a rectangular aluminum oxide polishing stone designed for fine surface finishing and deburring work. At 180 grit, it falls in the very fine abrasive range, making it well suited for honing edges, smoothing burrs, and refining surfaces on metal, tooling, and precision components. The stone measures 8 inches in overall length and weighs approximately 0.02 pounds, keeping it lightweight and easy to control during hand-finishing operations. Machinists, tool and die technicians, and maintenance trades reach for this type of stone when a controlled, hand-applied cut is needed to bring a surface to final tolerance or finish.

This polishing stone is used in machine shops, maintenance facilities, and manufacturing environments where hand finishing or deburring is part of routine tool prep or part finishing. It is appropriate for bench use or handheld application on flat, contoured, or recessed surfaces. Typical applications include removing machining marks, smoothing mating surfaces, and conditioning cutting edges on tooling, dies, molds, and general metal components. The rectangular profile provides flat, stable contact across the work surface.

Installation Notes

This stone is a hand-applied abrasive tool and does not require mechanical installation. Secure the workpiece firmly before applying the stone to avoid movement during finishing. Use an appropriate honing oil or dry technique as dictated by the base material and desired finish. Inspect the stone periodically for uneven wear or loading and dress or replace as needed to maintain consistent cutting action.
