Value Collection 01260272 Diamond Dresser 4 Carat

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 01260272 is a single-point diamond dresser used to true and dress grinding wheels in precision machining and tool-room applications. The tool features a 4-carat diamond tip mounted on a 1/2-inch diameter shank with a 6-inch shank length, giving machinists secure seating in standard tool posts and magnetic-base holders. Single-point dressers restore grinding wheel geometry by removing glazed abrasive and re-exposing sharp grit, which directly affects surface finish quality and stock removal rate on the workpiece. This dresser is suited for bench grinders, surface grinders, cylindrical grinders, and tool-and-cutter grinders in production and maintenance environments.

This diamond dresser fits into typical machine shop, toolroom, and grinding cell workflows where wheel condition is maintained as part of regular setup. It is appropriate for use on aluminum oxide, silicon carbide, and conventional abrasive wheels across a range of grit sizes. Grinding wheel dressing is a routine task performed by machinists, tool grinders, and maintenance technicians before critical grinding operations or whenever wheel loading, glazing, or out-of-round conditions are detected.

Key Features

• Single-point diamond contact for precise, controlled wheel truing
• 4-carat diamond provides durability across repeated dressing passes
• 1/2-inch shank diameter fits standard tool post and magnetic-base holders
• 6-inch shank length allows reach and secure clamping depth
• Suitable for conventional abrasive grinding wheels in production and toolroom use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard single-point diamond dresser for use with conventional abrasive grinding wheels on bench, surface, cylindrical, and tool-and-cutter grinders accepting a 1/2-inch shank.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or toolroom technicians. Before mounting, ensure the grinder is fully powered down and the wheel has stopped completely. Secure the 1/2-inch shank firmly in the tool post or magnetic dresser base at the correct angle, typically a slight heel angle per the machine manufacturer guidance, to prevent diamond chatter and uneven wear. Never dress a cracked or damaged wheel; inspect wheels visually and by ring test before dressing.
