Norton 66252842177 Type 27 Grinding Cutting Wheel 3 Inch

Product Description

The NORTON 66252842177 is a Type 27 depressed center abrasive wheel from the NorZon Plus line, engineered for light grinding and cutting on metal. Measuring 3 inches in diameter with a 1/8 inch thickness and a 3/8 inch arbor bore, this wheel is rated for a maximum operating speed of 18000 RPM. The Type 27 depressed center profile keeps the grinding face low relative to the work surface, giving the operator better sight lines and flatter stock removal. Trade professionals in fabrication, pipe, and sheet metal work reach for this size when working in tight areas or on small-diameter pipe and tubing.

This wheel is suited for light grinding and cutting applications on metal surfaces in both shop and field environments. Its compact 3 inch diameter makes it a practical fit for small angle grinders used in maintenance, repair, and fabrication tasks. The NorZon Plus abrasive blend is designed to cut faster and run cooler than standard aluminum oxide wheels, reducing heat buildup on the workpiece. Sold in cases of 25, this wheel is a common stock item for contractors and shop operations that go through abrasives at volume.
