Norton 66253022702 Cut-off Wheel 8 in 60 Grit Aluminum Oxide

Product Description

The NORTON 66253022702 is an aluminum oxide cut-off wheel designed for stationary grinder applications where clean, fast cuts on ferrous metals are required. The wheel measures 8 inches in diameter and 1/16 inch thick, with a 1/2 inch arbor hole for secure mounting. It carries a 60-grit rating and a resinoid bond, producing a wheel that balances cutting speed with reasonable service life. Rated at a maximum of 5,730 RPM, it is matched to stationary bench or pedestal grinders. Licensed trades and fabrication shops use this wheel for repetitive cutoff work on steel and stainless steel stock.

This wheel is suited for stationary grinder setups in fabrication, maintenance, and repair environments. Its Type 1 (flat) profile makes it appropriate for straight, perpendicular cutoff operations rather than grinding or contouring. The 60-grit aluminum oxide grain and resinoid bond are well matched to cutting mild steel and stainless steel bar, rod, and tube stock. The non-reinforced construction is specific to stationary applications and is not intended for portable angle grinder use.

Key Features

• 8 inch diameter, 1/16 inch thickness for thin-kerf cutoff performance
• 60-grit aluminum oxide abrasive with resinoid bond for consistent cutting action
• Type 1 (01/41) flat wheel profile for straight cutoff cuts
• 5,730 maximum RPM rating matched to stationary grinder speeds
• Non-reinforced construction suited for stationary bench and pedestal grinders
• Rated for steel and stainless steel applications

Compatibility

Designed for use with stationary grinders. Rated for cutting steel and stainless steel. The non-reinforced Type 1 profile is specific to stationary grinder use and is not compatible with portable angle grinders.

Installation Notes

Installation and wheel changes should be performed by a qualified operator following ANSI B7.1 safety standards for the use, care, and protection of abrasive wheels. Always power down and lock out the grinder before mounting or removing a wheel. Inspect the wheel for cracks or damage before each use and never operate above the rated maximum RPM. Non-reinforced wheels must only be used on stationary machines for which they are rated.
