questions you receive about abrasives safety?
Adam Bujnowski: The typical questions we
commonly answer revolve around correct wheel

What is the product's shelf life? Occasionally, a
person wants to do something with the product or
grinder that does not comply with ANSI or OSHA.
Fortunately, all these questions can be answered
by contacting your manufacturer or Norton |
Saint-Gobain Abrasives. Manufacturers develop
abrasive grinding products to perform specific
tasks on various materials, so reading and
understanding the safety warnings is critical.
Before use, follow the safety guides provided with
the abrasive product and the operation guide
supplied with the grinder.
