Tru-maxx TUA2A2FGC400J 400 Grit Dressing Stick 6 in

Product Description

The TRU-MAXX TUA2A2FGC400J is a rectangular aluminum oxide dressing stick used to true, dress, and clean grinding wheels in precision grinding applications. The vitrified bond construction holds the 400-grit abrasive firmly during contact with the wheel face, allowing the tech to restore correct wheel geometry and open up the cutting surface without introducing contamination. At a soft grade, the stick breaks down at a controlled rate to expose fresh abrasive and maintain consistent cut. Measuring 6 x 0.5 x 0.5 inches and weighing approximately 0.1 pounds, it is sized for bench grinders, surface grinders, and toolroom applications alike.

This dressing stick is suited for use in machine shops, toolrooms, and maintenance environments where grinding wheel condition directly affects surface finish and dimensional accuracy. Machinists, tool grinders, and maintenance technicians use this type of stick to remove glazing, loading, and out-of-round conditions from vitrified and conventional abrasive wheels. The rectangular profile provides a stable grip and consistent contact angle during the dressing pass.

Key Features

• 400-grit aluminum oxide abrasive for fine dressing and light stock removal from wheel faces
• Soft grade bond promotes controlled breakdown and consistent exposure of fresh abrasive
• Vitrified bond construction resists heat and coolant contamination during use
• Rectangular stick shape provides stable hand grip and repeatable contact angle
• Compact 6 x 0.5 x 0.5 inch size fits standard bench grinder and surface grinder applications

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose dressing stick for use on vitrified and conventional abrasive grinding wheels in bench grinder and surface grinder applications.

Installation Notes

Dressing sticks are typically used by machinists and toolroom technicians following lockout of the grinder per applicable machine safety procedures. Hold the stick firmly against the tool rest and advance it slowly across the rotating wheel face to remove glazing or restore profile. Always wear appropriate eye protection and follow the grinder manufacturer guidance on safe operating speed. Do not force the stick into the wheel or apply side pressure that could cause breakage.
