Take a closer look at how new developments in abrasives are significantly improving grinding wheel performance and user ergonomics. So why are manufacturers still not using the best performing wheels?

The ANSI B7.1 code is very specific defining the proper grinding surfaces for each type of wheel and shows that the only acceptable grinding surface on a cutting wheel is on the periphery, not the sides. Use cutting-off wheels for cutting only.

Converting from greaseless abrasive compounds to non-woven technology for structured surface finishes offers benefits beyond consistent, repeatable texture.

When non-woven abrasive products entered the right angle grinder field, the technology replaced traditional coated abrasives as a faster and more cost-effective method of stripping, deburring, blending, prepping and finishing.

In order to provide the necessary lubrication and cooling capacity and achieve parts free of metallurgical defects while maintaining lower operating and abrasive costs, grinding fluids are developed with very complex formulations.

Norton ProSand portable belts, sheets, sponges, and universal vacuum hole and Multi-Air Cyclonic vacuum discs outlast conventional sandpaper, making them ideal for stripping metal, paint, rust and corrosion as well as smoothing and finishing.

Wheel chemistry, grinding forces, and external factors help to clarify the statement - grinding wheels are self-sharpening over time. It seems contradictory as dressing is required after certain period of time to re-sharpen the wheel. We can explain.
