Grinding Wheels with Latest Abrasives



Norton Abrasives has introduced an upgrade of its depressed center wheels for right angle grinding applications. "Norton NorZon Plus wheels now utilize a proprietary blend of Norton's patented, newest generation SG ceramic alumina and Norton BlueFire zirconia alumina abrasives, combined with a new high performance bond system for significantly improved grain micro-fracturing," said a company spokesperson. "The new Norton NorZon Plus line has also been expanded with the introduction of Norton NorZon Plus Fast Cut Depressed Center Wheels, which are designed for fast material removal.

"Norton NorZon Plus' improved micro-fracturing capability provides a continual supply of serrated cutting edges, enabling increased productivity, wheel life and overall cost effectiveness across a broad spectrum of right angle grinding applications. New Norton NorZon Plus wheels provide 50-100% better overall performance than competitive ceramic alumina wheels. NorZon Plus Fast Cut provides a 15-30% improved cut rate over standard NorZon Plus wheels, significantly better than competitive zirconia alumina wheels."

According to the company, the new Norton NorZon Plus is ideal for steel, stainless steel and other ferrous metals. Wheels are available in sizes 4-9" in 1/4" thickness.

Norton Abrasives will be showcasing the new NorZon Plus line, including the new Fast Cut offering.
