Norton 66260149450 Diamond Dresser 7/16 Inch Shank

Product Description

The NORTON 66260149450 is a multi-point diamond dresser designed for precision truing and dressing of grinding wheels. It features a 7/16-inch shank diameter and a 3A-G shape profile, making it suited for restoring the cutting surface geometry and surface finish of abrasive wheels. The 15-degree included angle and 5/32-inch head thickness allow controlled material removal from the wheel face. Weighing just 0.1 pounds, this tool is compact and easy to handle during dressing operations. It is installed by machinists, tool grinders, and grinding machine operators working in production or maintenance environments.

This diamond dresser is used wherever grinding wheel conditioning is required, including surface grinding, cylindrical grinding, and tool and cutter grinding applications. The multi-point configuration distributes wear across several diamond points, extending dresser service life compared to single-point designs. It is appropriate for use in both job shop and production settings where consistent wheel geometry is critical to part tolerance and surface quality.
