Review on Norton Pedestal Abrasive Straight Thickness by Jerry Chembola

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Note that this may require some serious machining and wheel alignment!

Wheel arrived today 23rd February 2017 Ring ok checked looked clean of chips etc Handlebars fitted top spark arrestor fitted and everything else 1/8" from the wheel. Rotate the wheel by hand, the wheel jams 2/3 turn. Reset the spark arrestor and allow it to rotate by hand so that the gap between the surface of the wheel and the stop has increased from 1/8 changed to 1/4 ". I've cleaned the wheel twice to fix it and I'm not done yet. When I'm done I'll measure the diameter and post it here. I didn't have to machine the wheel more than 1/8 inch to get it right. It is mounted on a 3/4 hp industrial grinder. 4" for straightening and 1/16" for custom steel bushings for the center. I will not buy a Norton steering wheel again, the quality has deteriorated significantly compared to previous years.

Pros
  • 1 year trial
Cons
  • I have no particular complaints about it everything is fine
