Norton 61463687080 Round Sharpening Stone Medium Grade

Product Description

The NORTON 61463687080 is a round sharpening stone designed for honing and edge maintenance on cutting tools. At 1/4 inch thick and medium grade, it is suited for general-purpose sharpening tasks where a moderate abrasive level is needed to restore a working edge without aggressive stock removal. This stone is a compact, single-profile abrasive used by tradespeople, machinists, and field technicians who need a reliable slip stone or gouge stone for maintaining chisels, gouges, and curved-profile blades. Its round cross-section makes it effective for sharpening concave surfaces and tool flutes that flat stones cannot reach.

This sharpening stone is appropriate for use in workshop, job site, and field service environments. It is commonly used by woodworkers, pipefitters, HVAC technicians, and general maintenance professionals who keep hand tools sharp as part of routine workflow. The medium grade abrasive is well matched for touch-up sharpening on tools that are dull but not chipped or severely worn, making it a practical everyday honing option across a range of cutting tool types.

Installation Notes

Sharpening stones require no installation but should be used with an appropriate honing oil or water depending on the stone type to float swarf and prevent glazing. Keep the stone clean and store it in a dry location to maintain abrasive performance. Handle with care to avoid chipping, as thin-profile stones can fracture if dropped on hard surfaces.
