Value Collection ADD1776 Diamond Dresser 1/3 Carat

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION ADD1776 is a single-point diamond dresser used to true and dress abrasive grinding wheels in machine shop and industrial grinding applications. The tool features a 1/3-carat diamond tip mounted on a 3/8-inch diameter shank with a 6-inch shank length, giving it the reach and rigidity needed for surface, cylindrical, and tool-and-cutter grinders. Weighing 0.18 pounds, it is compact enough for bench-mounted or pedestal grinder setups. Machinists and grinding technicians use this dresser to restore wheel profile, remove glazing, and maintain consistent stock removal rates during precision grinding operations.

This diamond dresser is suited for use in job shops, toolrooms, and maintenance grinding applications where consistent wheel condition is critical to surface finish and dimensional accuracy. It is compatible with standard grinding wheel dressing fixtures and holder blocks that accept a 3/8-inch shank. The single-point configuration is most effective for form dressing straight-face and lightly contoured grinding wheels used in general-purpose material removal and finish grinding.

Installation Notes

Diamond dressers are typically installed and used by machinists or grinding technicians. Before mounting the dresser, ensure the grinding machine is fully powered down and the wheel has come to a complete stop. Secure the shank firmly in the dressing fixture or holder to prevent movement during contact with the wheel. Always dress at the recommended angle and traverse rate for the wheel specification in use — never apply excessive downward pressure, as this can damage the diamond tip or cause wheel loading.
