Norton 66260302087 Diamond Bench Grinding Wheel 6in 100 Grit

Product Description

The NORTON 66260302087 is a Type 1A1 electroplated diamond bench and pedestal grinding wheel designed for precision grinding applications in trade and industrial settings. The wheel measures 6 inches in diameter, 1 inch thick, with a 1-inch arbor hole, making it a standard fit for most bench and pedestal grinder setups. At 100 grit with a fine grade rating, this wheel delivers controlled material removal and refined surface finishes on hard, abrasive materials such as carbide, ceramics, glass, and hardened steel. Electroplated diamond bond provides aggressive cutting action with consistent performance throughout the wheel life.

This wheel is suited for bench grinder and pedestal grinder applications in maintenance shops, tool rooms, and trade service environments. It is commonly used by machinists, tool and die professionals, and skilled tradespeople working with superabrasive grinding tasks. The Type 1A1 straight wheel profile makes it appropriate for peripheral grinding of cutting tools, carbide-tipped tooling, and hard nonferrous workpieces. Its electroplated construction means no dressing is required, simplifying workflow on the bench grinder.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician following the grinder manufacturer guidelines and applicable ANSI B7.1 safety standards for abrasive wheel mounting. Always power down and unplug the grinder before mounting or removing a wheel. Inspect the wheel for cracks or damage before installation and verify the grinder spindle speed does not exceed the wheel maximum rated RPM. Use proper flanges and a compressible blotter between the flanges and the wheel face as required by the grinder design.
