Norton 61463687000 Taper Sharpening Stone Fine Grade

Product Description

The NORTON 61463687000 is a fine-grade taper sharpening stone designed for honing and sharpening pointed tools, gouges, and narrow-edged blades that require a tapered profile for access. At 1/4 inch thick with a taper shape, this stone allows technicians and tradespeople to work edges and inside angles that flat stones cannot reach. The fine grit grade makes it suited for finishing and edge-refining work rather than heavy material removal. It is a compact, lightweight stone weighing approximately 0.002 pounds, making it easy to carry in a tool pouch or service kit.

This taper sharpening stone is used across a range of trades and applications where precise edge maintenance is required. Plumbers and pipefitters use tapered stones to dress reamer blades and deburring tools. HVAC technicians use them to maintain cutting tools used in sheet metal and tubing work. Electricians and general tradespeople use fine-grade taper stones for touchup honing of chisels, knives, gouges, and awls. It is also appropriate for woodworkers and shop technicians who require a portable, fine-grit option for field or bench use.

Installation Notes

Sharpening stones require no installation but should be used with appropriate honing oil or water depending on the stone type to float swarf and protect the abrasive surface. Always secure the workpiece or stone firmly before honing to prevent slipping and contact injury. Inspect the stone before use for cracks or chips that could cause uneven honing or breakage. Dispose of worn abrasive stones per local shop safety guidelines.
