Norton 69014192770 Diamond Grinding Wheel 180 Grit 6in

Product Description

The NORTON 69014192770 is a Type 1A1 diamond surface grinding wheel designed for precision surface grinding applications requiring a very fine finish. Built with Armored Synthetic Diamond (ASD) abrasive and a resinoid bond, this wheel operates at a superabrasive concentration of 75 and delivers consistent material removal at 180 grit. The wheel measures 6 inches in diameter, 1/4 inch thick, with a 1-1/4 inch hole size and a superabrasive depth of 1/4 inch. It is rated soft in hardness (Code R) and is suited for both wet and dry operation. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals install this wheel on compatible surface grinders to achieve tight tolerances and improved surface finishes on hard or brittle materials.

This wheel is well matched to surface grinding operations where finish quality is the primary objective. The 180 grit, very fine grade makes it appropriate for final-pass grinding on hardened tool steels, carbides, ceramics, and other hard materials where material removal rate is secondary to surface quality. It is intended for use in shop environments by skilled machinists, tool grinders, and grinding specialists working on precision components. The no-recess, no-taper flat profile of the Type 1A1 form supports straight-face grinding on horizontal-spindle surface grinders.

Key Features

• Armored Synthetic Diamond (ASD) abrasive for long wheel life on hard and brittle materials
• 180 grit, very fine grade optimized for finish improvement rather than aggressive stock removal
• Resinoid bond provides controlled, consistent cut with good surface finish results
• Superabrasive concentration of 75 balances cutting performance and wheel longevity
• Compatible with wet and dry grinding operations for application flexibility
• Type 1A1 flat wheel form with no recess and no taper for straightforward mounting

Compatibility

Designed for use on horizontal-spindle surface grinders accepting a 6 inch diameter, 1-1/4 inch hole, Type 1A1 straight wheel. Specification designation ASD180-R75B99-1/4 identifies abrasive type, grit, hardness, concentration, bond, and superabrasive depth for cross-reference purposes.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or grinding specialist following the grinder manufacturer's mounting instructions and ANSI B7.1 safety standards for abrasive wheels. Power down and lock out the grinder before mounting or removing any wheel. Inspect the wheel for cracks or chips before installation and never exceed the maximum operating speed rated for the wheel. Flanges and blotters must be clean, flat, and sized correctly to prevent uneven clamping stress.
