Value Collection UM15 Triangle Sharpening Stone Silicon Carbide

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION UM15 is a triangle-profile sharpening stone made from silicon carbide abrasive material. It measures 0.5 inches thick and carries a medium grade, making it suitable for general-purpose edge dressing and tool sharpening tasks. The black silicon carbide composition delivers consistent stock removal on a range of tool steels and carbide edges. This stone is a hand-held honing tool used by machinists, tradespeople, and maintenance technicians who need to restore cutting edges on chisels, gouges, files, and other profiled tools without power equipment.

The triangle shape of the UM15 makes it especially practical for sharpening the inside angles of saw teeth, deburring tight grooves, and dressing edges in confined profiles where flat stones cannot reach. It is well suited for shop environments, job-site tool kits, and maintenance carts. Medium grade provides a balance between fast material removal and a reasonably refined edge finish, making it a versatile choice for restoring moderately dull or nicked edges before finishing with a finer stone if required.

Key Features

• Triangle profile for accessing inside angles, saw teeth, and profiled cutting edges
• Silicon carbide abrasive for effective stock removal on a wide range of tool steels
• Medium grade balances cutting speed with edge refinement
• 0.5 inch thickness provides solid grip and controlled honing pressure
• Black silicon carbide construction resists loading on harder tool materials

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose hand honing stone for use on chisels, gouges, saw teeth, and other profiled edges requiring medium-grade silicon carbide abrasive action.

Installation Notes

No installation is required for this hand-held sharpening stone. Secure the workpiece or tool firmly before applying the stone to avoid slipping and injury. Light honing oil or water can be used as a lubricant to float swarf and extend stone life. Keep fingers clear of the cutting edge during sharpening strokes.
