Norton Xtrimium Applications

WORM GRINDING

An engineered micro-structured ceramic grain provides excellent free cutting action and durability to maximize performance and quality.

• Perfect homogeneity throughout wheel thickness

• Increased form holding

• Friction free

DUAL WORM GRINDING

The dual wheel combines a vitrified section to grind, and a fine grit section to polish the gear teeth.

• High surface quality providing Rz=1,0µm Rpk=0,05µm

• Wheels can be adapted to existing machines

PROFILE GRINDING

High porosity and permeability in this ceramic based wheel offering the fastest metal removal rate on the market.

• Unrivalled DIN quality

• Fast material removal

 

BEVEL GRINDING

Our highly porous Xtrimium bevel formulation is the ‘must have’ wheel, no other wheel for bevel grinding compares.

• Burn free cutting
