Norton 69014192226 Type 12A2 Diamond Grinding Wheel 180G

Product Description

The NORTON 69014192226 is a Type 12A2 superabrasive grinding wheel designed for precision tool grinding and cutting applications. It features Armored Synthetic Diamond (ASD) abrasive with a resinoid bond, rated at 180 grit for a very fine finish. The wheel measures 6 inches in diameter with a 1-inch overall thickness and accepts a 1-1/4-inch arbor hole. The ASD180-R75B99-1/8 specification designates the abrasive type, concentration level, bond hardness, and superabrasive depth, giving tool room technicians and grinding specialists precise identification for wheel selection and dressing procedures.

This wheel is suited for wet or dry operation on bench and pedestal tool grinders, surface grinders, and CNC tool and cutter grinders used in tool room and industrial manufacturing environments. The Type 12A2 dish profile with a 26-degree face angle is commonly used for grinding carbide-tipped cutting tools, drills, end mills, and similar tooling where a controlled, fine-finish grind is required. Licensed machine operators and tool grinders in production and maintenance shops are the primary users of this wheel.

Key Features

• Armored Synthetic Diamond (ASD) abrasive for long-lasting material removal on carbide and hard tooling
• 180 grit very fine grade produces a refined surface finish suited for finishing and light stock removal
• Resinoid bond provides controlled cut action with consistent performance in both wet and dry grinding
• Type 12A2 dish profile with 26-degree face angle fits standard tool and cutter grinder setups
• Superabrasive concentration of 75 balances wheel life with cutting efficiency
• 1/8-inch superabrasive depth and 3/16-inch face width deliver focused grinding contact on tool edges

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit superabrasive wheel for bench, pedestal, and CNC tool and cutter grinders accepting a 6-inch diameter wheel with a 1-1/4-inch arbor hole.

Installation Notes

Superabrasive grinding wheels must be mounted by a qualified machine operator or tool room technician following ANSI B7.1 safety standards for abrasive wheel mounting. Power down and lock out the grinder before removing the existing wheel. Inspect the wheel for cracks or damage before mounting and verify that the machine speed rating does not exceed the wheel speed rating. When operating wet, confirm the coolant system is functioning before engaging the wheel to prevent thermal shock to the abrasive layer.
