Norton 66260195163 Diamond Dresser 1/2 Carat Single Point

Product Description

The NORTON 66260195163 is a single-point diamond dresser designed to true and dress abrasive grinding wheels in machine shop and industrial grinding applications. It uses a 1/2-carat diamond tip to restore wheel geometry, remove glazing, and expose fresh abrasive grain. The shank measures 7/16 inches in diameter and 1-7/16 inches in length, with a 5/8-inch head diameter. The resettable design allows the diamond to be repositioned when wear occurs, extending the service life of the tool. Machinists, tool grinders, and surface grinding operators are the primary users of this dresser.

This diamond dresser is suited for use on conventional bench grinders, surface grinders, cylindrical grinders, and tool-and-cutter grinding machines. It is used in both job shop and production environments where consistent wheel profile and surface finish are required. The single-point configuration makes it well suited for general-purpose dressing and form truing on aluminum oxide and silicon carbide wheels. The 7/16-inch shank fits standard dresser holders commonly found on production grinding equipment.

Installation Notes

Diamond dressers are typically installed and operated by machinists or grinding machine operators. Before mounting, power down and lock out the grinding machine per OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Secure the dresser shank firmly in the holder to prevent movement during dressing passes. Present the diamond to the wheel at a slight trailing angle, typically 10 to 15 degrees, to promote even wear on the tip — do not dress with the point oriented straight into the wheel face.
