Norton 662530-44087 Bench Pedestal Wheel 8x1x1 Medium

Product Description

The NORTON 662530-44087 is a Type 1 silicon carbide bench and pedestal grinding wheel designed for stock removal and sharpening on non-metallic workpieces. Measuring 8 inches in diameter, 1 inch wide, with a 1-inch arbor bore, this wheel mounts to standard bench grinders and pedestal grinder stands. The green silicon carbide abrasive material is suited for medium-grit material removal on carbide tooling, ceramics, glass, and similar hard non-ferrous or non-metallic materials. The wheel is rated to a maximum of 3,600 RPM, keeping it compatible with a broad range of benchtop and floor-stand grinder units used in trade shops.

This wheel is a standard production abrasive used in fabrication shops, tool rooms, and maintenance facilities where technicians need to dress, shape, or sharpen carbide-tipped tools and non-metallic workpieces. Medium grit provides a balance between aggressive stock removal and a reasonably smooth finished surface, making it appropriate for both tool reconditioning and general shaping tasks. It is sold individually and fits grinder arbors sized at 1 inch.

Installation Notes

Always power down and unplug or lock out the grinder before mounting or removing an abrasive wheel. Inspect the wheel for cracks or chips before installation and perform a ring test by tapping the wheel gently — a clear ring indicates structural integrity. Do not exceed the 3,600 RPM maximum speed rating marked on the wheel. Eye protection and a properly adjusted work rest and wheel guard are required during operation in accordance with ANSI B7.1 standards for the use, care, and protection of abrasive wheels.
