Norton 66253022694 Cut-off Wheel 8 in 60 Grit Aluminum Oxide

Product Description

The NORTON 66253022694 is a Type 1 resinoid-bonded aluminum oxide cut-off wheel designed for precision cutting on stationary abrasive machines. The wheel measures 8 inches in diameter and 1/32 inches thick with a 1-1/4 inch arbor hole, making it well-suited for narrow kerf, accurate cuts. It carries a 60-grit rating and a hardness code of N, indicating a medium-hard bond that holds grain well under sustained cutting pressure. Maximum operating speed is 4,775 RPM. At 0.024 pounds, it is a lightweight consumable intended for single-use cutting applications in fabrication and metalworking environments. Licensed tradespeople and shop technicians are the primary installers and operators.

This cut-off wheel is rated for cutting steel and stainless steel and is intended for use with stationary cutting tools rather than handheld angle grinders. Typical applications include structural steel cutting, tube and bar stock sizing, and sheet metal fabrication in shop environments. The non-reinforced Type 1 profile is appropriate for straight, plunge-style cuts on stationary equipment where the wheel is properly guarded and the workpiece is securely fixtured.

Key Features

• 8 inches diameter with a 1/32 inches thin-kerf profile for clean, accurate cuts
• 1-1/4 inch arbor hole for stationary machine mounting
• Aluminum oxide abrasive grain at 60 grit for general-purpose steel cutting
• Resinoid bond (Type 1 / 01/41) with hardness code N for consistent grain retention
• 4,775 RPM maximum operating speed
• Rated for steel and stainless steel cutting applications
• Non-reinforced construction appropriate for stationary tool use

Compatibility

Designed for use with stationary abrasive cutting tools that accept a 1-1/4 inch arbor and operate at or below 4,775 RPM. Rated for cutting steel and stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Mount and operate this wheel only on stationary equipment rated for the wheel diameter and arbor size. Verify the machine operating speed does not exceed 4,775 RPM before use. Power down and lock out the machine before mounting or removing any abrasive wheel. Inspect the wheel for cracks or chips before each use and never operate a damaged wheel. Follow applicable ANSI B7.1 safety standards for abrasive wheel mounting and guarding.
