Norton 66253022705 Cut-off Wheel 8 in 36 Grit Aluminum Oxide

Product Description

The NORTON 66253022705 is a Type 1 resinoid-bonded aluminum oxide cut-off wheel designed for aggressive cutting on steel and stainless steel with stationary grinders. Measuring 8 inches in diameter and 1/16 inch thick with a 1-1/4 inch arbor hole, this wheel delivers a thin kerf and clean cut on ferrous and stainless materials. At 36 grit with a hardness code of T and grain structure 4, it balances fast stock removal with controlled cutting action. Both sides are reinforced for added durability under the lateral stresses common in stationary grinder applications. Rated to a maximum of 7640 RPM, it suits a range of shop-grade stationary grinders used by metal fabricators and maintenance technicians.

This cut-off wheel is suited for stationary grinder setups in fabrication shops, maintenance facilities, and industrial service environments. It is rated for cutting steel and stainless steel, making it a go-to choice for pipe cutting, bar stock, and structural steel work. The 8-inch diameter and thin 1/16-inch profile allow it to fit standard stationary grinder arbors and deliver repeatable, straight cuts. Licensed tradespeople and professional fabricators handling metal cutting tasks in both shop and field environments will find it appropriate for day-to-day production use.

Key Features

• 8-inch diameter Type 1 (01/41) flat profile for use with stationary grinders

• 7640 maximum RPM rating compatible with a range of stationary grinder speeds

Compatibility

Designed for use with stationary grinders. Rated for cutting steel and stainless steel. Fits arbors requiring a 1-1/4 inch hole size.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified operator familiar with abrasive wheel safety procedures. Always power down and disconnect the grinder before mounting or removing a wheel. Confirm the grinder spindle speed does not exceed the 7640 RPM maximum rating marked on the wheel before operation. Inspect the wheel for cracks or damage prior to mounting, and ensure the arbor flange and blotter are properly seated per ANSI B7.1 guidelines.
