Norton 61463686915 Taper Sharpening Stone Medium Grade

Product Description

The NORTON 61463686915 is a tapered sharpening stone used to hone and dress edges on blades, reamers, and precision cutting tools. The taper profile allows access to narrow gullets, grooves, and tight radii that flat stones cannot reach. Rated at medium grade, it removes metal at a moderate rate suitable for re-establishing a working edge without excessive stock removal. At 0.125 inches thick, the stone is compact and easy to control by hand or in a guided fixture. Plumbers, electricians, HVAC technicians, and general tradespeople keep stones like this on the truck for field touch-ups to pipe reamers, snips, and deburring tools.

This taper sharpening stone is suited to light maintenance applications in the field or shop. The medium grade makes it appropriate for restoring a serviceable edge on tools that are dull but not chipped or heavily damaged. It is commonly used on pocket knives, gouges, chisels, and small-diameter reamers. Its low weight at 0.05 pounds makes it easy to carry in a tool pouch or service bag for on-site use.

Installation Notes

Sharpening stones require no installation but should be used with a compatible honing oil or water to float away metal swarf and extend abrasive life. Apply consistent, controlled strokes along the cutting edge, maintaining a fixed angle throughout. Keep the stone clean and free of embedded metal particles after use. No special tools or trade certifications are required for use.
