Norton 66260195071 Diamond Dresser 7/16 Inch Shank

Product Description

The NORTON 66260195071 is a multi-point diamond dresser used to true and dress grinding wheels in precision grinding applications. The 7/16-inch shank diameter and 3/4-inch head length make it suitable for standard tool post and fixture mounting setups. A 3/8-inch head thickness provides the structural mass needed for consistent dressing passes. Multi-point diamond construction distributes wear across several diamond crystals, extending tool life compared to single-point designs. This tool is installed and used by machinists, tool and die makers, and grinding machine operators working in production or maintenance environments.

Diamond dressers of this type are used on surface grinders, cylindrical grinders, and bench grinders to restore wheel profile and open the wheel face for efficient cutting. The 2B-A shape designation indicates the head geometry suited to flat and contour dressing tasks. Suitable for light-duty and moderate-duty dressing operations on aluminum oxide and silicon carbide wheels in both job shop and production settings.

Installation Notes

A licensed machinist or qualified grinding machine operator should mount and use this dresser. Power down and isolate the grinding machine before securing the dresser in the tool post or holder. Ensure the shank is clamped firmly and the dresser is presented to the wheel at the correct angle per the machine manufacturer guidelines before engaging the spindle. Never freehand a diamond dresser against a running wheel without a properly secured holder.
