Norton 3X Grinding Wheel
Norton's 3X grinding wheels are engineered specifically for abrading all types of heat-treated tool steels found in woodworking. The wheel's ceramic grit cuts hardened steels faster than even aluminum oxide with less glazing. Ceramic alumina's friable grain structure combined with a relatively weak abrasive bond make these the coolest running wheels on the market. You get burn-free cuts on everything from the high-speed steel found in turning tools to the high carbon steel in Hock plane irons. These blue beauties run so cool you can even put them on that cheap high-speed grinder you bought at BigHomeCostMart with little risk. Maximum RPM: 5410
For most applications with low-speed grinders, the Premium Aluminum Oxide Wheels are an excellent economical choice. But, if you're the type of person who must have the best (and you know who you are), then the Norton 3X wheels will surely please you. Norton recommends their Multi-point Diamond Wheel Dresser (159005) for deglazing and shaping their wheels, but any diamond or silicon carbide dresser will work. The 6" wheel includes bushings to fit down to a 1/2" shaft and the 8" wheel includes bushings to fit down to a 5/8" shaft.
Made with Norton's patented SG (ceramic alumina) grain with a I hardness rating.
