Measuring 8 inches in diameter and 0.035 inches thick with a 5\/8-inch arbor hole, this wheel operates at a maximum rated speed of 7,640 RPM. The 60-grit aluminum oxide abrasive delivers consistent stock removal on steel, while the reinforced construction — with sides reinforced — provides structural integrity under lateral cutting loads. At 0.3 pounds, it is a standard single-wheel package suited for trade use on circular saws and compatible stationary or portable cutting equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis cutoff wheel is intended for cutting steel and similar ferrous materials in fabrication, mechanical, and maintenance applications. Its Type 1 flat profile makes it appropriate for straight, plunge, and chop-cut operations. It is installed and used by metal fabricators, pipefitters, millwrights, and maintenance technicians who require a reliable abrasive wheel for production or field cutting tasks. The resinoid bond performs well across a range of steel cutting scenarios where a thin kerf and controlled cut are priorities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType 1 (01\/41) flat wheel profile for straight and chop-cut applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e60-grit aluminum oxide abrasive rated for steel cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eResinoid bond with hardness code O for consistent wheel wear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoth sides reinforced for structural integrity under load\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.035-inch thickness for a thin kerf and reduced material loss\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum rated speed of 7,640 RPM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with circular saws accepting a 5\/8-inch arbor and capable of operating at or below 7,640 RPM.

Always confirm the tool's spindle speed does not exceed the wheel's 7,640 RPM maximum rating before mounting. Inspect the wheel for cracks or damage prior to each use, and never use a damaged wheel. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment including a face shield, gloves, and hearing protection during operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.035 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbrasive Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 60\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBond Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Resinoid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Type 1 (01\/41)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum RPM\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7,640\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: O\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReinforced\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes, sides reinforced\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Color\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brown\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: A60-OBNA2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23131503\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: NORTON\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 66253042979\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NORTON","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51538922668338,"sku":"66253042979","price":61.51,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/c3cca81953083db4e6a782afb65e1db5.jpg?v=1785829757","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/norton-66253042979-aluminum-oxide-cutoff-wheel-8-in-60-grit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
