Norton 66252835055 Aluminum Oxide Cutoff Wheel 6 in

Product Description

The NORTON 66252835055 is a Type 1 flat aluminum oxide cutoff wheel designed for aggressive cutting on steel and ferrous materials. Measuring 6 inches in diameter and 0.035 inches thick with a 1-1/4 inch arbor hole, it is engineered for use on angle grinders. The wheel is double-side reinforced with a resinoid bond and carries a 60-grit rating with a hardness code of O, delivering a consistent, controlled cut. Maximum operating speed is rated at 10,190 RPM. Fabricators, ironworkers, and maintenance technicians rely on this wheel for straight, efficient cutoff work on structural steel and pipe.

This cutoff wheel is suited for metal fabrication shops, construction sites, and maintenance environments where angle grinder cutoff work on steel is routine. Its Type 1 flat profile makes it appropriate for straight plunge and cut-through applications. The 0.035 inch kerf minimizes material loss per cut, which is practical when working with bar stock, conduit, angle iron, and structural sections. The reinforced construction helps the wheel handle the lateral stress typical of production cutting environments.

Key Features

• Type 1 flat profile for straight cutoff applications on angle grinders
• Aluminum oxide abrasive grain rated at 60 grit for steel cutting
• Double-side reinforced resinoid bond construction for added durability under load
• 0.035 inch thickness reduces kerf and material waste per cut
• 10,190 RPM maximum operating speed
• Specification grade A60-OBNA2 for consistent manufacturing quality

Compatibility

Designed for use with angle grinders accepting a 1-1/4 inch arbor hole and a 6 inch diameter cutoff wheel. Intended application material is steel per manufacturer specification.

Installation Notes

Cutoff wheels must be mounted and operated by trained personnel following ANSI B7.1 safety standards and the grinder manufacturer's instructions. Always inspect the wheel for cracks or damage before mounting and never exceed the 10,190 RPM maximum rated speed. Power down and disconnect the grinder before changing wheels. Use the correct arbor flange size and ensure the wheel is properly seated and guarded before operation.
