Value Collection ADD1779 Diamond Dresser 1 Carat

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION ADD1779 is a single point diamond dresser designed to true and dress grinding wheels in industrial and tool-and-die applications. With a 1 carat diamond tip, it removes high spots, reshapes wheel profiles, and restores cutting efficiency on bonded abrasive wheels. The 3/8 inch shank diameter and 6 inch shank length allow it to seat securely in standard tool post holders and dressing fixtures. It is used by machinists, grinding technicians, and tool room operators to maintain wheel geometry and surface finish consistency on cylindrical, surface, and bench grinders.

This dresser is suited for general-purpose wheel dressing in machine shops, maintenance departments, and production grinding environments. It fits standard dressing tool holders and is compatible with a wide range of bonded abrasive grinding wheels including aluminum oxide and silicon carbide types. The single point configuration is appropriate for straight dressing passes and light profile work where a controlled, repeatable cut is required.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or grinding technician with the grinder powered off and the wheel at a complete stop before mounting the dresser. The shank should be seated firmly in the tool holder with the diamond tip positioned slightly below wheel center and angled 10 to 15 degrees in the direction of wheel rotation per standard dressing practice. Ensure the tool holder set screw is tightened securely before resuming grinder operation. Always wear appropriate eye protection when dressing grinding wheels.
