Value Collection 4256181 Rectangle Polishing Stone 180 Grit

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 4256181 is a rectangle-shaped polishing stone made from aluminum oxide abrasive. It measures 6 inches in overall length, 0.25 inches wide, and 0.125 inches thick. At 180 grit, it falls in the very fine category, making it suited for deburring, honing, and finishing metal or composite surfaces where close tolerances and smooth finishes are required. This stone is not oil-filled and is ready to use dry or with a light honing oil depending on the application. Machinists, tool-and-die workers, and general metalworkers reach for this type of stone when a precision edge or surface finish is needed after primary machining operations.

This polishing stone is used in hand-finishing operations across machine shops, maintenance facilities, and manufacturing environments. Its slim rectangular profile allows it to access tight slots, keyways, and narrow surfaces that larger stones cannot reach. It is appropriate for ferrous and non-ferrous metals, carbide, and hardened tool steel. Technicians working on molds, dies, fixtures, and precision components will find the 180-grit rating effective for light stock removal and pre-polish surface preparation.

Installation Notes

This stone is a hand-held abrasive tool and does not require installation. Use appropriate personal protective equipment, including eye protection and cut-resistant gloves, during honing and deburring operations. Apply light honing oil to the stone surface if preferred for smoother cutting action and to flush swarf. Inspect the stone for chips or cracks before use and replace if structurally compromised.
