Norton 66243528552 Cutoff Wheel 3in Aluminum Oxide 60 Grit

Product Description

The NORTON 66243528552 is a Type 1 (flat) aluminum oxide cutoff wheel designed for use with die grinders in metal cutting applications. Measuring 3 inches in diameter and 0.06 inches thick with a 3/8-inch arbor hole, this wheel uses a resinoid bond with sides-reinforced fiberglass construction to maintain integrity at high rotational speeds up to 25,465 RPM. At 60 grit, it delivers aggressive material removal on steel. It is suitable for fabricators, maintenance technicians, and trade professionals who use die grinders for precision cutoff work in tight spaces.

This cutoff wheel is rated for use on steel and is appropriate for both shop and field applications where a die grinder is the tool of choice. The compact 3-inch diameter makes it well suited for close-quarters cutting on pipe, rod, bolt, and structural steel. It fits standard die grinder arbors with a 3/8-inch hole. Licensed tradespeople including plumbers, pipefitters, HVAC technicians, and general maintenance mechanics commonly use this wheel size for utility cutoff tasks on metal components.
