Norton 66261151173 Mounted Flap Wheel 60 Grit Ceramic Alumina

Product Description

The NORTON 66261151173 is a mounted flap wheel designed for use with die grinders and straight grinders in metalworking, fabrication, and finishing applications. It measures 2 inches in outside diameter with a 1-inch face width and uses a 1/4-inch shank for secure tool mounting. The abrasive material is ceramic alumina on a cloth backing, rated at a medium grade with a 60-grit cut. This wheel is engineered for aggressive stock removal and blending on ferrous and non-ferrous metals, making it a practical choice for weld blending, deburring, and surface prep work performed by machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians.

This mounted flap wheel suits bench and portable grinder work in industrial, manufacturing, and job-site environments. The coated ceramic alumina construction handles demanding surface conditioning tasks where consistent cut rate and durability under load are priorities. It is appropriate for both production runs and detail finishing work in residential shop, commercial fabrication, and light industrial settings. The 1/4-inch shank is the standard diameter accepted by most die grinders and rotary tools used in these trades.

Installation Notes

Mounting flap wheels should be installed and operated by personnel familiar with abrasive tool safety. Verify that the tool spindle speed does not exceed the 25000 RPM maximum rated speed of the wheel before use. Inspect the wheel for damage before mounting and ensure the shank is fully seated and secured in the collet. Follow applicable ANSI B7 abrasive wheel safety standards and always use appropriate eye and face protection during operation.
