Built with a zirconia alumina abrasive at 36 grit, it delivers fast stock removal and extended wheel life compared to standard aluminum oxide wheels. The resinoid bond holds abrasive grains firmly under load, and both sides are reinforced for added structural integrity during high-speed cutting. At a maximum operating speed of 3820 RPM, this wheel is rated for stationary cutting equipment. It measures 16 inches in diameter and 7\/64 inches thick, with a 1-inch arbor hole. This wheel is part of the BlueFire Long Life series, targeting fabricators and metalworkers who demand consistent cut rates across heavy-duty applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wheel is designed for use with stationary cutting tools such as chop saws and abrasive cutoff machines. Its 16-inch diameter and 36-grit zirconia alumina construction make it well suited for cutting structural steel, pipe, tube, angle iron, and stainless steel stock in fabrication shops, industrial maintenance environments, and mechanical contracting settings. The reinforced construction handles the lateral stresses common in production cutting cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZirconia alumina abrasive for fast cutting and extended wheel life on ferrous metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e36 grit for aggressive stock removal on steel and stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eResinoid bond provides consistent grain exposure under load\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoth sides reinforced for added durability during stationary machine use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType 1 flat wheel profile for straight cutoff operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlueFire Long Life construction for reduced wheel changes in production settings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eRated for stationary abrasive cutoff machines accepting a 16-inch diameter, Type 1 wheel with a 1-inch arbor hole and a maximum spindle speed at or below 3820 RPM.

Always de-energize and lock out the machine before mounting or removing the wheel. Inspect the wheel for cracks or chips before each use and never exceed the rated maximum RPM marked on the wheel. Use the correct flanges and arbor hardware specified for the cutting machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Type 1 (01\/41)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/64 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbrasive Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Zirconia Alumina\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 36\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum RPM\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3820\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBond Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Resinoid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReinforced\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes, sides reinforced\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Color\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: BlueFire Long Life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.37 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: NORTON\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 66252843257\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NORTON","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542132752690,"sku":"66252843257","price":51.23,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/39c3d9d8afe48b17f1520bce5b3f18b4.jpg?v=1785893114","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/norton-66252843257-cut-off-wheel-16-in-zirconia-alumina","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
