New Vortex Wheels
Revolutionary Porous Grinding Technology
With its high performance, engineered fused alumina grain and
optimum three-dimensional grain spacing, Vortex technology produces
a permeable grinding wheel with very high metal removal rates, longer
wheel life, and ultimate part quality. Dramatically reduced wheel
dressing and cycle times, and consistent performance throughout the
life of the wheel, result in maximum productivity and lowest total costs
for difficult-to-grind, heat-sensitive operations.

TwinStar and TwinFiber Ceramic Flap Discs
Grind and Finish in One Operation
Their blend of premium ceramic and aluminum oxide
abrasives creates the industry's top performing flap
discs on stainless and carbon steel applications.
Conical TwinFiber discs are ideal for maximum stock
removal. Flat TwinStar discs excel at fine finishing.
NORaX Engineered Abrasive Belts
Generate a Better Finish… More Economically
NORaX U242 belts are an example of the advanced abrasive technology
only available from Norton. The engineered, multi-layered surface
pattern outlasts conventional polishing belts, cuts faster and produces a
repeatable, consistent finish from the first to last part. NORaX U242
belts last 2-5 times longer than conventional abrasive belts.
Two Basic Flap Disc Designs
15° – 25°
Type 29 – Conical
Grind at steeper angles for
more aggressive applications.
0° – 15°
Type 27 – Flat
Grind at flatter angles for
the best finish.
