At 24 grit, this is a very coarse abrasive stick designed for aggressive dressing work where significant wheel face correction or rapid loading removal is required. The square cross-section profile measures 8 inches long by 1 inch wide by 1 inch thick, giving the technician solid surface contact and consistent hand control during dressing. Vitrified bond construction provides a rigid, hard structure that holds abrasive grain firmly while allowing clean fracture for self-sharpening action. This tool is a standard item in grinding and machining operations where wheel condition directly affects surface finish quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe TU345 dressing stick is suited for use in machine shops, maintenance shops, and any facility running bench grinders, surface grinders, or cylindrical grinders. It is typically used by machinists, tool and die technicians, and maintenance mechanics to restore wheel geometry, remove glazing, and expose fresh cutting grain. The coarse 24-grit rating makes it most effective on heavily loaded or out-of-round wheels rather than fine-finish truing applications. It can also be used to shape specialty profiles into wheel faces for form grinding work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSilicon carbide abrasive material — effective on vitrified bonded grinding wheels\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e24 grit very coarse grade for aggressive wheel face correction and rapid glaze removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSquare stick shape provides stable, consistent contact during hand dressing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVitrified bond construction delivers a rigid, durable structure with controlled breakdown\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8-inch length allows full hand grip with extended usable dressing surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.1 pounds — easy single-hand operation during wheel truing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use as a dressing tool on vitrified bonded grinding wheels commonly found in bench, surface, and cylindrical grinding applications across industrial and maintenance environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDressing sticks are applied by hand or in a fixture to a spinning grinding wheel — always ensure the grinder is running at rated speed before contact and that the wheel guard is in place. Wear ANSI-rated eye protection and ensure proper work rest clearance before dressing. Apply the stick with steady, even pressure along the wheel face; do not force or jam the stick against the wheel. Allow the grinder to reach full speed before beginning and confirm the wheel is rated for the operating RPM before any dressing work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbrasive Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Silicon Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 24\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Very Coarse\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBond Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Vitrified\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStick Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Square\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: TRU-MAXX\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: TU345\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"TRU-MAXX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51754589716786,"sku":"TU345","price":25.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/946950c2fdbd6693274260444d21db06.jpg?v=1788946887","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/tru-maxx-tu345-silicon-carbide-dressing-stick-24-grit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
