Norton 66252835164 Cutoff Wheel 6in Aluminum Oxide 60 Grit

Product Description

The NORTON 66252835164 is a Type 1 (01/41) reinforced aluminum oxide cutoff wheel designed for aggressive cutting on steel. Measuring 6 inches in diameter and 0.060 inches thick with a 1/2 inch arbor hole, this wheel mounts on die grinders for straight, narrow cutoff work. The resinoid bond holds 60-grit aluminum oxide abrasive in a brown, side-reinforced construction rated to a maximum of 10,190 RPM. The A60-OBNA2 specification indicates a medium-hard O-grade bond that maintains wheel integrity under sustained cutting load without excessive glazing.

This cutoff wheel is suited for metal fabrication, maintenance, and repair work where a die grinder is the tool of choice. The 6-inch diameter and thin 0.060-inch profile minimize material loss at the cut line, making it appropriate for pipe, bar stock, sheet metal, and structural steel in both shop and field settings. It is sold individually and is a direct single-unit replacement for worn or consumed wheels in an existing rotation.

Key Features

• Type 1 (01/41) flat profile for straight cutoff cuts with die grinders
• 60-grit aluminum oxide abrasive rated for steel cutting applications
• Resinoid bond with O-grade hardness resists breakdown under load
• Side-reinforced construction for added wheel integrity at speed
• 0.060-inch thin kerf reduces material loss and heat at the cut
• 10,190 maximum RPM rating for safe operation on compatible grinders

Compatibility

Designed for use with die grinders accepting a 1/2-inch arbor and wheels up to 6 inches in diameter. Rated for cutting steel per the A60-OBNA2 specification.

Installation Notes

Cutoff wheel mounting and operation should be performed by qualified personnel familiar with abrasive wheel safety. Always verify the tool's rated RPM meets or does not exceed the wheel's 10,190 RPM maximum before mounting. Inspect the wheel for cracks or chips before each use and never operate a damaged wheel. Follow ANSI B7.1 and tool manufacturer guidelines for guarding, wheel blotters, and spindle nut torque.
