Norton 66260195011 Diamond Dresser 7/16 Inch Shank

Product Description

The NORTON 66260195011 is a grit impregnated diamond dresser used to true and dress grinding wheels in precision grinding operations. It features a multi-point diamond configuration embedded in a grit impregnated tip, which distributes wear across multiple diamond particles for consistent wheel surface conditioning. The shank diameter measures 7/16 inches with a shank length of 7/8 inches and a head length of 3/4 inches. This tool is shaped to the 1A-A profile and is installed by machinists, tool grinders, and shop technicians who maintain grinding wheel geometry and surface finish on surface, cylindrical, and bench grinders.

This diamond dresser is suited for use in machine shops, production grinding operations, and tool rooms where maintaining precise grinding wheel profiles is required. It fits standard dresser holders and wheel dresser mounts that accept a 7/16-inch shank. Applications include dressing aluminum oxide, silicon carbide, and vitrified bond grinding wheels to restore cutting action and correct wheel runout. Both production environments and maintenance shops use this type of dresser during regular wheel conditioning cycles.

Installation Notes

Diamond dressers are installed by machinists or tool room technicians. Before mounting, power down and lock out the grinder per OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Secure the shank firmly in the dresser holder to prevent chatter during dressing. Always use eye protection and follow the grinding machine manufacturer guidelines for dresser feed rate and depth of cut to avoid damaging the diamond tip.
