Norton 66252838327 Type 2 Grinding Wheel 6 in 80 Grit

Product Description

The NORTON 66252838327 is a Type 2 silicon carbide grinding wheel designed for tool cutting and grinding operations. It measures 6 inches in diameter with a 1-inch face width and accepts a 1-1/4-inch arbor hole. The wheel runs a vitrified bond with an I hardness code, placing it in the medium grade range. Rated to a maximum of 3,600 RPM, this non-porous green wheel carries the specification designation 39C80-IVK. It is suited for bench grinder and pedestal grinder setups where consistent stock removal on hard, brittle materials is required.

This wheel is a standard choice for sharpening carbide-tipped tooling, ceramic components, and other hard, non-metallic workpieces where silicon carbide abrasive outperforms aluminum oxide. The Type 2 straight-sided profile fits conventional bench grinder flanges. Shops, tool rooms, and maintenance departments working with carbide tooling or masonry-type materials will find the 80-grit, medium-grade combination effective for controlled stock removal without excessive heat buildup at the workpiece.

Key Features

• Silicon carbide abrasive for grinding hard, brittle, and non-metallic materials including carbide tooling
• Vitrified bond provides rigidity and consistent cutting action throughout wheel life
• 80 grit, I hardness (medium grade) balances stock removal rate with surface finish
• 3,600 maximum RPM rating for standard bench and pedestal grinder use
• Non-porous construction resists loading during dry grinding operations
• Green wheel color indicates silicon carbide composition for quick shop identification

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard fitment for bench and pedestal grinders accepting a 6-inch diameter, 1-inch wide, Type 2 wheel with a 1-1/4-inch arbor bore.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician following ANSI B7.1 safe use guidelines for abrasive wheels. Always power down and lock out the grinder before mounting or removing a wheel. Inspect the wheel for cracks or chips before mounting and perform a ring test. Never exceed the 3,600 RPM maximum speed rating stamped on the wheel or its blotter.
