In Booth C-11110, Norton | Saint-Gobain Abrasives (Worcester, MA) introduces their new Norton QUANTUM3™ RightCut Wheels, adding cut-off capability to their Norton QUANTUM3 (NQ3) line that will also display depressed center grinding wheels and combination wheels. In comparison tests, NQ3 RightCut Wheels have several key benefits over competitive wheels. They are designed with the operator in mind, boasting a more rounded grain than precision-shaped ceramic grains found in the market today. Being rounded allows for faster cutting action with less vibration, which is instrumental in reducing operator fatigue when cutting metal all day. When working on thinner materials, or when operators need to get the job done quickly, the .045 in NQ3 RightCut wheel is ideal. Due to its proprietary grain, the wheel easily cuts through the workpiece quickly, increasing efficiency and saving time.

“The bond system of the NQ3 technology allows for better mix control during the manufacturing process. This better mix keeps the individual grains from clumping together, for a more even wear of the cut-off wheel,” explained Alicia Castagna, PhD, the product manager of thin wheels at Norton |Saint-Gobain Abrasives. This is also true with the 1/16 in NQ3 RighCut wheels when cutting thicker materials. Longer life translates to more productivity, keeping the operator working smarter, not harder. The Norton Quantum3 line of RightCut wheels are offered in four Type 01/41 and three Type 27/42 cutting application SKUs. All products are currently in stock. These wheels are available in 4½ in, 5 in and 6 in, all made in the U.S. To request a product test, please click here.
