Norton 66252809600 Type 11 Snagging Wheel 6 in 16 Grit

Product Description

The NORTON 66252809600 is a Type 11 snagging grinding wheel designed for aggressive material removal on metal and castings. Built with a dual-abrasive blend of aluminum oxide and silicon carbide bonded with resinoid, this wheel delivers fast stock removal at a very coarse 16 grit rating. The hardness code Q indicates a hard bond grade that holds abrasive grains longer under heavy load. Rated to a maximum of 6,000 RPM, it fits standard angle grinders and bench grinders equipped with a 5/8-11 threaded hub. Fabricators, foundry workers, and weld prep technicians are the primary users of this wheel.

This wheel is suited for snagging, deburring, and weld blending operations in fabrication shops, foundries, and heavy industrial maintenance environments. The Type 11 flared-cup geometry concentrates grinding pressure along the face, making it effective for working on flat surfaces, weldments, and rough casting cleanup. Its 6,000 RPM rating keeps it compatible with a broad range of grinder spindle speeds used in both shop and field applications. The 16 grit specification makes this wheel appropriate where fast, aggressive stock removal is the priority rather than surface finish.

Key Features

• Type 11 (snagging) flared-cup geometry concentrates cutting pressure for aggressive stock removal
• Dual-abrasive blend of aluminum oxide and silicon carbide for fast cutting on metal and castings
• 16 grit, very coarse specification suited for weld removal and surface conditioning
• Hard bond grade (Q) extends grain retention under high-load snagging applications
• Resinoid bond construction provides controlled flexibility and impact resistance during use
• 5/8-11 threaded hub for direct mounting on compatible angle grinders and pedestal grinders

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-stock grinding wheel for grinders equipped with a 5/8-11 threaded spindle accepting a Type 11 flared-cup wheel up to 6 inches in diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified operator familiar with abrasive wheel safety procedures. Always power down and disconnect the grinder before mounting or removing a wheel. Inspect the wheel for cracks or chips before each use and never exceed the 6,000 RPM maximum speed rating marked on the wheel. ANSI B7.1 safe-use standards and applicable shop safety codes should be followed when operating grinding equipment.
