Norton 662529-12626 Type 27 Grinding Wheel 7x1/16x7/8

Product Description

The NORTON 662529-12626 is a Type 27 depressed center grinding wheel designed for aggressive material removal with controlled wheel wear. Built with aluminum oxide abrasive, this wheel delivers consistent cutting performance on ferrous metals and structural steel. At 7 inches in diameter, 1/16 inch thick, and with a 7/8 inch arbor bore, it fits standard 7-inch angle grinders used daily in fabrication, welding, and construction trades. The depressed center profile keeps the grinding surface close to the workpiece, allowing flat and flush grinding in tight areas where a flat wheel cannot reach.

This wheel is suited for metal cutting and surface grinding tasks in fabrication shops, structural steel work, pipeline work, and general maintenance environments. It handles weld seam removal, deburring, and surface prep on mild steel, stainless steel, and cast iron. The 1/16 inch thickness makes it appropriate for light material removal and flush grinding rather than heavy stock removal. Installers in welding, ironwork, and industrial maintenance trades will find this wheel a practical fit for daily grinder use.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitment for 7-inch angle grinders accepting a 7/8 inch arbor bore, commonly used in metal fabrication, welding, and structural steel applications.

Installation Notes

Grinding wheels must be installed and changed by qualified personnel following ANSI B7.1 safety standards for the use, care, and protection of abrasive wheels. Always power down and unplug or lock out the grinder before mounting or removing a wheel. Inspect the wheel for cracks or chips before each use and never operate above the maximum RPM rating marked on the wheel. Wear appropriate PPE including a face shield, gloves, and hearing protection during operation.
