Overview

Why DE-250 Diamond Wheel Extra Fine?

  • Diamond grinding wheel for the Tormek T-8.
  • Provides an extra smooth finish.
  • Constant shape, always maintains the same diameter.
  • Sharpens all types of steel and ceramic.
  • Allows sharpening on the flat side of the grinding wheel for a completely flat bevel.
  • Exceptional durability with diamond, the world’s hardest abrasive.

Sharpens all materials
With this diamond grinding wheel, you can sharpen all types of materials, including steel, ceramics and carbide. The DE-250 Diamond Wheel Extra Fine fits the Tormek T-8 Original, Tormek T-8 Custom, Tormek T-7 and earlier models with a grinding wheel of 250 mm (9 7/8″) diameter.

The DE-250 Diamond Wheel Extra Fine is especially appreciated by woodcarvers and others who need a mirror finish on the bevel. If you need to give your tool a new edge or shape, it’s best to do that on another grinding wheel first and then use your DE-250 Diamond Wheel Extra Fine to give the final finish.

Simplifies repeat sharpening
All of Tormek’s diamond grinding wheels have exceptional durability and constant abrasive power, which means that they always stay round and flat with a full-size diameter. Users who often sharpen the same tool benefit greatly from this, as it simplifies both jig setting and sharpening.

Get a completely flat bevel
The constant shape makes it possible to sharpen either on the side of the wheel or on its upper surface. Side sharpening is perfect for smaller tools such as knives, chisels, carving gouges and v-tools. The result is an edge with a completely flat bevel, instead of a slightly concave surface.

For sharpening on the side of the diamond grinding wheels, we recommend using the MB-102 Multi Base together with the jig designed for your specific tool. Both the base and the jigs give you support and control throughout the sharpening process.

Rust protection for increased service life
All diamond grinding wheels are supplied with 150 ml of ACC-150 Anti-Corrosion Concentrate. Always add the concentrate to the water when sharpening with water to prevent rust on the grinding wheel. Add 10 ml (0.02 pints) of concentrate to 250 ml (0.4 pints) of water (~4%). We recommend always using water when sharpening with diamond grinding wheels if possible, as it both prolongs the service life of the wheel and provides a smoother sharpening surface. You can also sharpen without water. Learn more about sharpening with diamond grinding wheels.

More Information

In Detail

Tormek, already one of the most versatile and comprehensive sharpening systems, now has even more potential. These Tormek diamond grinding wheels offer huge benefits: exceptional durability and the ability to sharpen on the flat side as well as the periphery. Used together with MB-100 multi base you can sharpen on the side of the diamond wheel to produce a completely flat bevel, which may be preferable in some cases. In addition, these diamond grinding wheels will never require dressing and will always retain their original diameter.

The quality of the diamond surface provides a high quality and consistent finish to your edge tools. Diamond is the world’s hardest material and almost twice as hard as cubic boron nitride (CBN). Diamond’s extreme hardness and durability make it the ultimate abrasive material for sharpening. Although the wheels work perfectly well dry, Tormek recommend using water it as gives a much better result. The Tormek Extra-Fine diamond grinding wheel has a grit size of 1,200 mesh. It will refine and polish the edges of tools such as fine carving knives and similar for a precision edge after sharpening with coarser stones.

You can sharpen all types of material, including steel, ceramic, and tungsten carbide. These wheels fit Tormek T-8, Tormek T-7 and previous models Tormek 2000 – 2006 with a 250mm stone diameter.
