Buy Mounted Points Online in Australia
Mounted Point Selection — Quick Reference
Mounted points are shank-mounted abrasive grinding tools for die grinders, rotary tools, and flexible-shaft machines — internal grinding, deburring, weld blending, die finishing in confined spaces. Selection turns on shape (matches contour to access), abrasive grade, and shank size.
| Shape Code | Profile | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| W (Cylindrical / Square Edge) | Straight cylindrical body | General internal grinding + surface blending — workshop default |
| A (Spherical / Ball) | Ball-shaped | Radius grinding, concave + spherical surfaces |
| B (Cone / Pointed) | Conical body to point | Tight angles, V-groove finishing, weld root work |
| C / D (Tapered) | Tapered diameter along length | Internal tapered features, draft angle grinding |
| E (Cylindrical with Rounded End) | Cylinder + ball end | Blending corners in pockets, transition radii |
| K (Cup / Concave) | Concave grinding face | External rounding, OD profile work |
| Dressing Stones | Specific dresser geometry | Truing + dressing larger grinding wheels |
Abrasive: Aluminium Oxide (brown — standard, A-grade) | Aluminium Oxide pink (PA — tool steel, finer + cooler) | Silicon Carbide (green — carbide tools, non-ferrous, cast iron). Shank sizes: 3mm + 6mm = die grinder standard. RPM rating: always match the point's MAX RPM to your tool — exceeding rating = explosive failure. Brands: Pferd, Norton. Companion: abrasives, die grinders.
Mounted Points
Mounted points are shank-mounted abrasive grinding tools used in die grinders, rotary tools and flexible-shaft machines for internal grinding, deburring, weld blending, die finishing and surface preparation in confined areas. AIMS Industrial stocks a comprehensive range from Pferd and Norton.
Shapes and Profiles
- Cylindrical (W shape) — general-purpose internal grinding and surface blending
- Spherical / Ball (A shape) — for radius grinding and concave surfaces
- Tapered and Cone shapes — for accessing tight angles and internal profiles
- Dressing stones — for truing and dressing grinding wheels
Pferd and Norton
Pferd mounted points are available in aluminium oxide (brown) with mixed hardness grades and standard N-hardness, in individual packs and assorted sets. Norton mounted points include aluminium oxide A-shape (pink) and W-shape options for precision die and mould work. Both brands offer consistent grit quality suited to hardened steels, cast iron and general metalworking.
Abrasive and Grit Selection
Aluminium oxide suits hardened steels and cast iron. For finer finishing work, use higher grit numbers; for aggressive stock removal, use coarser grades.
