Norton 66252838538 Type 6 Grinding Wheel 6in 60 Grit

Product Description

The NORTON 66252838538 is a Type 6 straight-cup grinding wheel designed for tool grinding and surface grinding applications. Constructed from aluminum oxide abrasive bonded with a vitrified bond, it delivers consistent stock removal on ferrous metals and tool steels. The wheel is rated J hardness (medium grade) with a 60-grit cut, making it suitable for moderate material removal where a balance of cut rate and surface finish is needed. Rated to a maximum of 3,820 RPM, this wheel is sized at 6 inches in diameter with a 2-inch overall thickness and a 1/2-inch face width. Licensed trades and tool-room machinists are the primary installers and operators of this wheel.

This wheel is used on bench grinders and pedestal grinders equipped with a 1-1/4-inch arbor hole. It is well suited for sharpening tool bits, drill bits, and cutting tools in maintenance shops, machine shops, and industrial facilities. The 60-grit, medium-grade construction handles general-purpose tool reconditioning without loading up on softer metals. The gray, non-porous wheel body is consistent with standard vitrified aluminum oxide wheels used in trade and light industrial environments.
