Centerless grinding wheel
Norton Abrasives

Centerless grinding is a production process that produces extremely close tolerances on metal cylindrical forms or parts. Centerless grinding is used on a wide variety of workpieces. The key components in the process are the grinding wheel, the work rest blade (used to support the work) and the regulating or "feed" wheel (the drive mechanism for the workpiece). We also carry stock rubber and plastic feed wheels.
