Norton 61463687430 Medium Grade Rectangle Sharpening Stone

Product Description

The NORTON 61463687430 is a medium-grade rectangular sharpening stone used to hone and dress cutting edges on hand tools, blades, and edged instruments. At 3/16 inches thick, this stone is sized for detail work and edge maintenance tasks where a compact, flat abrasive surface is required. The medium grit classification makes it suited for general-purpose honing — removing moderate amounts of metal to restore a working edge without the aggressive stock removal of a coarse stone. It meets MT125 specifications and carries product service code 5345. Machinists, knife sharpeners, woodworkers, and general tradespeople keep this type of stone on hand for routine edge upkeep.

This sharpening stone is appropriate for use in shop, field, or jobsite environments wherever cutting tools require periodic edge restoration. Its rectangular form provides a flat, consistent honing surface compatible with chisels, plane irons, pocket knives, scissors, and similar tools. The compact thickness makes it easy to store in a tool pouch or kit. It is equally applicable in light industrial, maintenance, and general trade settings.

Installation Notes

Sharpening stones require no mechanical installation. When in use, secure the stone on a stable, non-slip surface before applying tool pressure. Follow the tool or blade manufacturer's recommended honing angle. Some stones benefit from a light application of honing oil or water to float swarf and extend abrasive life — confirm the appropriate lubricant for this stone type before use.
