Value Collection 4256187 Rectangle Polishing Stone 180 Grit

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 4256187 is a rectangle aluminum oxide polishing stone designed for fine material removal, edge refinement, and surface finishing on metal, tool steel, and similar hard materials. It measures 6 inches in overall length, 1 inch in width, and 0.5 inches in thickness. The 180 grit, very fine grade makes it well suited for finishing passes, deburring, and light honing where a smooth, consistent surface finish is the goal. This stone is not oil-filled and is commonly used dry or with a light honing oil. It is a standard bench stone format used by machinists, tool-and-die workers, maintenance technicians, and fabricators.

This polishing stone fits general-purpose bench work and hand-tool sharpening applications in machine shops, maintenance facilities, and fabrication environments. The rectangular profile allows flat face honing, edge work, and access to slots or grooves. The 180 grit aluminum oxide abrasive cuts consistently across a range of ferrous and non-ferrous metals and is appropriate for final finishing steps following coarser stock removal. It is sold in packages of 6 units.

Installation Notes

No installation is required for bench stones. A licensed machinist or maintenance technician typically handles precision honing and finishing work. Always secure the workpiece or stone holder before applying pressure to avoid slipping. If using honing oil, apply sparingly to the stone face and wipe clean after each use to prevent loading of the abrasive surface.
