Norton 66252843596 Type 27 Grinding Wheel 5 in 24 Grit

Product Description

The NORTON 66252843596 is a Type 27 depressed center grinding wheel designed for aggressive material removal on metal surfaces. Built with aluminum oxide abrasive bonded in a resinoid bond matrix, this wheel delivers coarse 24-grit cutting action suited for weld grinding, surface prep, and deburring tasks. The depressed center profile allows flat-to-surface grinding without the hub interfering with the workpiece. Rated to a maximum of 12,225 RPM, the wheel measures 5 inches in diameter and 1/8 inch thick with a 7/8-inch arbor hole. At 0.12 pounds, it is a lightweight consumable used by metalworkers, fabricators, and maintenance trades.

This wheel fits standard 5-inch angle grinders commonly used in fabrication shops, maintenance facilities, and construction sites. It is suited for grinding mild steel, cast iron, and similar ferrous metals. The 7/8-inch arbor hole is the standard size for most 5-inch right-angle grinders, making this a drop-in fit for common portable tools. The coarse 24-grit rating makes it best suited for stock removal rather than finishing work.

Installation Notes

Mounting and wheel changes must be performed by qualified personnel following ANSI B7.1 safe practices for abrasive wheel use.
