Built with aluminum oxide abrasive and a vitrified bond, this wheel delivers consistent cutting action across a wide range of ferrous metals and tool steels. At 16 inches in diameter, 1 inch wide, and with a 5-inch arbor hole, it fits standard centerless grinder spindles used in production and job shop environments. The 60-grit medium grade designation and K-hardness rating make it well suited for general-purpose cylindrical grinding where moderate material removal and surface finish are both priorities. Weighing 10.66 pounds, it is handled and mounted by skilled grinding machine operators or toolroom machinists.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wheel is designed for use on centerless cylindrical grinding machines in industrial, production, and toolroom settings. It is appropriate for through-feed and in-feed centerless grinding operations on bar stock, shafts, pins, and similar round workpieces. The aluminum oxide grain with vitrified bond performs reliably on carbon steel, alloy steel, and similar ferrous materials. Its non-porous structure and grain structure rating of 5 contribute to stable wheel geometry throughout the grind cycle. The specification code 32A60-K5VBE identifies the exact wheel formulation for sourcing and replacement reference.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAluminum oxide abrasive with vitrified bond for consistent, controlled cutting action on ferrous metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e60-grit medium grade provides a balance of stock removal rate and surface finish quality\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eK-hardness (medium) rating supports broad applicability across general cylindrical grinding tasks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNon-porous wheel construction maintains dimensional stability and resists loading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated to 2030 RPM maximum for safe operation on compatible centerless grinders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGray wheel color and no-recess design simplify identification and standard flange mounting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit grinding wheel for centerless cylindrical grinding machines accepting a 16-inch diameter, 1-inch wide, Type 1 wheel with a 5-inch arbor hole.

Always inspect the wheel for cracks or damage before mounting and perform a ring test. Power down and lock out the grinding machine completely before changing wheels. Never exceed the rated maximum of 2030 RPM and always use properly sized flanges and blotters as required by the grinder manufacturer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Type 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbrasive Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBond Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Vitrified\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 32A60-K5VBE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 60\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Medium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Hardness\u003c\/strong\u003e: K (Medium)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrain Structure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum RPM\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2030\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePorous\u003c\/strong\u003e: Non-Porous\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecess Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: No Recess\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Color\u003c\/strong\u003e: Gray\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10.66 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: 66253464837\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NORTON","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51541529526578,"sku":"66253464837","price":810.01,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/337cada0db4996fdcc4152b09c4cdbc5.jpg?v=1785878473","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/norton-66253464837-grinding-wheel-16in-aluminum-oxide-60-grit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
