Norton 66252809609 Type 11 Grinding Wheel 6 in 16 Grit

Product Description

The NORTON 66252809609 is a Type 11 snagging grinding wheel built for aggressive material removal on hard surfaces. It uses a silicon carbide abrasive bonded with a resinoid bond system, delivering very coarse stock removal at a rated maximum speed of 6,000 RPM. At 6 inches in diameter and 2 inches overall thickness, this wheel fits angle grinders and bench grinders configured for cup-style Type 11 wheels. The hardness code is P, indicating a medium wheel hardness well suited for controlled cutting action on hard or brittle materials. Licensed trades and grinding professionals install and operate this wheel in fabrication and surface prep applications.

This wheel is used in industrial and trade settings where rapid, coarse snagging work is required. Typical applications include weld cleanup, casting flash removal, and aggressive surface conditioning on metal and masonry. The silicon carbide grain makes it especially effective on hard ferrous metals, cast iron, and non-metallic materials. The 5/8-11 threaded hub ensures a secure mount on compatible spindles. This wheel is sold individually and is suited for professional shop use.
