Norton 61463687155 Round Coarse Sharpening Stone

Product Description

The NORTON 61463687155 is a round coarse-grade sharpening stone designed for edge restoration and tool sharpening applications. At 0.25 inches thick, this compact stone suits quick touch-up work on blades, chisels, and other cutting edges encountered in trade and shop environments. The coarse grit removes material efficiently, making it appropriate for reprofiling damaged or heavily dulled edges before moving to finer abrasives. It is typically used by machinists, pipefitters, electricians, and general tradespeople who maintain hand tools on the job. The specification designation CS24 indicates a coarse silicon carbide formulation suited to hard tool steels and carbide-tipped tooling.

This sharpening stone is suited to bench and field use wherever fast metal removal on cutting edges is required. Its round geometry makes it practical for sharpening curved gouges, auger bits, and other non-straight edge profiles that flat stones cannot reach easily. At 0.014 pounds, it is light enough to carry in a tool bag. Typical applications include maintenance of hand tools across plumbing, electrical, HVAC, and general construction trades.

Installation Notes

Sharpening stones require no installation but should be used on a stable surface or secured workpiece to prevent slipping during use. Apply a light honing oil or water to the stone surface as appropriate for the abrasive type to improve cutting action and reduce clogging. Ensure all power tools are fully de-energized and blades are removed from service before sharpening. Dispose of worn abrasive material according to local shop waste guidelines.
