Norton 66260195010 Diamond Dresser 7/16 Inch Shank

Product Description

The NORTON 66260195010 is a grit impregnated diamond dresser used to true and condition abrasive grinding wheels. Diamond dressers restore wheel geometry, remove glazing, and expose fresh abrasive grain to maintain cutting performance. This dresser features a multi-point grit impregnated tip in a 1A-C shape, which distributes wear across multiple diamond particles for extended service life compared to single-point tools. The shank measures 7/16 inches in diameter and 3/4 inches in length, with a head length of 3/4 inches. It is installed and used by machinists, tool-and-die makers, and grinding machine operators in production and maintenance environments.

This diamond dresser is suited for precision grinding operations in metalworking shops, tool rooms, and manufacturing facilities. It is used to dress straight and formed grinding wheels on surface grinders, cylindrical grinders, and bench grinders. The grit impregnated construction makes it a practical choice for dressing aluminum oxide, silicon carbide, and similar conventional abrasive wheels where consistent wheel face condition is critical to part finish and dimensional accuracy.

Key Features

• Grit impregnated multi-point tip distributes wear for longer dresser life
• 1A-C shape compatible with standard wheel dressing applications
• 7/16 inch shank diameter fits common dresser holders and grinding machine tool posts

Installation Notes

Diamond dressers are installed and operated by qualified machinists or grinding machine operators. Before mounting, power down and lock out the grinding machine per applicable OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Secure the dresser firmly in the tool post or dresser holder to eliminate overhang and vibration. Always dress with the wheel rotating at operating speed and use appropriate eye protection, as dressing generates fine abrasive and metal particles.
