Norton 66253360493 Cut-off Wheel 14 in Zirconia Alumina

Product Description

The NORTON 66253360493 is a 14-inch Type 1 (01/41) resinoid-bonded cut-off wheel built for high-demand cutting on steel and stainless steel. It runs a zirconia alumina abrasive at a 30-grit rating, producing aggressive, fast cuts while resisting heat buildup at the wheel face. The wheel measures 14 inches in diameter, 1/8 inch thick, with a 1-inch arbor hole, and is rated to a maximum of 5400 RPM. Both sides are reinforced for added structural integrity during operation. This wheel is designed for use with electric or gas-powered cut-off saws in fabrication, maintenance, and rail-cutting applications.

This cut-off wheel is suited for professional cutting of structural steel, pipe, rebar, and stainless steel in both shop and field environments. The Railcut Norzon III specification indicates it is engineered for demanding rail and structural cutting tasks. It is compatible with electric and gas-powered saws that accept a 14-inch, 1-inch arbor wheel. Typical users include ironworkers, pipefitters, fabricators, and maintenance tradespeople requiring consistent, repeatable cuts on ferrous metals.

Key Features

• Zirconia alumina abrasive for aggressive cutting and extended wheel life on steel and stainless steel
• Type 1 (01/41) flat wheel profile for straight, consistent cut-off work
• Resinoid bond provides durability and controlled cut action under high load
• Sides reinforced construction adds structural integrity at operating speeds
• 5400 RPM maximum rating supports use on standard 14-inch electric and gas-powered saws
• Railcut Norzon III specification suits heavy-duty structural and rail-cutting applications

Compatibility

Designed for use with electric and gas-powered cut-off saws accepting a 14-inch diameter, 1-inch arbor hole wheel. Suitable for cutting steel and stainless steel. Do not exceed 5400 RPM.

Installation Notes

Installation and wheel changes must be performed by a qualified operator following ANSI B7.1 safety guidelines for abrasive wheels. Always power down and disconnect the saw before mounting or removing the wheel. Inspect the wheel for cracks or damage before each use and never use a wheel that has been dropped or shows visible defects. Ensure the saw spindle speed does not exceed the 5400 RPM maximum rating marked on the wheel.
