Norton product guide simplifies right-angle grinding abrasives selection

Norton | Saint-Gobain Abrasives has introduced a 24-page product guide that highlights its abrasives for right-angle grinding. The new guide simplifies proper abrasives selection for varying process steps and materials.

Explained in the guide, the abrasives are classified in Best, Better, and Good performance/price tiers to help users choose the right product for a specific application. The guide is color-coded for the eight key application processes found in metal fabrication, including cutting, heavy-duty grinding, stock removal, blending and refining, deburring, surface preparation and cleaning, finishing, and polishing.

The guide also has a grit application table which shows the grit overlap for each product type and every stage of the application process. Process-to-product recommendations are provided based on material including mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminum. Fourteen pages of the product guide detail technical tips for application steps and recommended products.
