Dressing sticks restore wheel geometry, remove glazing, and expose fresh abrasive grain so the wheel cuts efficiently. This stick is manufactured with an 80-grit silicon carbide abrasive in a vitrified bond at a semi-hard grade. The vitrified bond provides rigidity and controlled wear, making it well suited for precision dressing work. At 6 inches long with a 1-inch by 1-inch cross section, it offers a solid grip and enough mass for extended service life. Grinding wheel maintenance technicians, tool room operators, and machine shop personnel are the primary users.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis dressing stick is applied to bench grinders, surface grinders, cylindrical grinders, and tool and cutter grinders in machine shop, manufacturing, and maintenance environments. The 80-grit silicon carbide formulation makes it effective for dressing aluminum oxide and other conventional abrasive wheels used in metalworking and industrial fabrication. It is also used in woodworking and composites shops where wheel conditioning is part of routine maintenance. The semi-hard grade helps the stick wear at a rate that keeps the wheel face clean without excessive stick consumption during normal dressing cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e80-grit silicon carbide abrasive for effective wheel face cleaning and opening\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVitrified bond construction provides rigidity and consistent wear characteristics\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSemi-hard grade balances stick longevity with efficient wheel dressing action\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRectangular profile measuring 6 x 1 x 1 inches for a secure, controlled grip\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGray colorway typical of vitrified silicon carbide dressing sticks for easy identification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement dressing stick for use with conventional abrasive grinding wheels in bench, surface, cylindrical, and tool and cutter grinder applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDressing sticks are applied by hand to a rotating grinding wheel by qualified machine operators or tool room technicians following shop safety procedures. The wheel should be running at its rated speed before the stick is brought into contact. Always use appropriate eye protection and a wheel guard as required by OSHA and machine manufacturer guidelines. Do not force the stick into the wheel face; apply light, steady pressure and allow the abrasive action to condition the wheel gradually.\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: 80\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Semi-Hard\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: Rectangular\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 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\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Gray\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 pounds\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: TUAAFCC80N\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"TRU-MAXX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51750416286002,"sku":"TUAAFCC80N","price":25.84,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/50a32111fe09a11eb4e4cd6700eacc79.jpg?v=1788915377","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/tru-maxx-tuaafcc80n-silicon-carbide-dressing-stick-80-grit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
