Detailed Description
Tormek T-4 Original Sharpening System
The Tormek T-4 Sharpening system is modeled after the legendary Tormek 10" Water Cooled Sharpener,
unsurpassed for quality, versatility, edge positioning accuracy and repeatability when grinding, sharpening and honing justabout every tool in your shop
and home.
The T-4 has an 8" ceramically made, 220 grit aluminum oxide grindstone wheel. A quiet, long life (25,000 hours), powerful AC motor spins the stone
at a modest 120 RPM. The wheel remains continuously bathed in water, keeping your tool's edge cool and free from any risk of overheating. The rotation
rate avoids slinging water while the water tray captures the grinding dust, eliminating any air-borne respiratory hazards. Optional jigs are
available for practically every kind of tool. (NOTE: If purchasing the T-4 primarily for sharpening chisels and plane irons, you MUST order the
optional Square Edge Jig.) The jigs slide onto a micro-adjustable tool rest
bar and operate parallel to the wheel without requiring calibration. Most work happens above the wheel, grinding into the tool's edge. However, the
tool rest can be moved into the Horizontal Base for more jig positioning choices and to grind away from the tool's edge. Once an edge
has been ground at 220 grit, the Tormek grindstone can be transformed into a 1000 grit sharpener with the included Stone Grader allowing you
to grade the stone from 220 grit to 1000 grit in about 30 seconds. Best of all, you go quickly from grinding to sharpening without the bother of
changing wheels or altering your jig or tool rest settings, sharpening at exactly the same angle at which you ground the tool.
Honing the tool's edge occurs on the included Leather Stropping Wheel. Charged with stropping paste, the spinning wheel will hone an edge
in a mere 10-20 seconds. The optional jig for sharpening chisels and plane irons is the
Square Edge Jig, which has been redesigned to reference the back of your iron
or chisel to the jig to better ensure a square grind of the cutting edge. A unique mounting clamp, which will hold even tapered chisels, avoids
skewing the chisel's edge when securing the tool in the jig. A small safety stop secures to the tool rest support bar to prevent the tool's edge
from slipping off the stone. The included Pro Anglemaster makes easy work of grinding and sharpening chisels and plane irons square
and accurately to your desired bevel angle. The Pro Anglemaster sets any angle from 15° to 75° and adjusts for different wheel diameters
from 10" to 6". Thus you can maintain accuracy on aging wheels and use it on other grinders as well.
Warranty
Tormek T-4 Sharpening System is backed by a 8 year (5+3) warranty. It comes with a 5 year warranty, which can be extended to 8 years by registering
