Why Choose the DC-250 Diamond Wheel Coarse?
- Optimized for Tormek T-8: Specifically designed diamond grinding wheel for seamless compatibility.
- Rapid Steel Removal: Ideal for repairing or reshaping edges, ensuring swift restoration of your tools.
- Consistent Shape Maintenance: Retains its diameter over time, ensuring reliable sharpening results.
- Versatile Material Compatibility: Sharpens a wide range of materials with unparalleled efficiency.
- Flat Bevel Sharpening: Enables sharpening on the wheel’s flat side for a perfectly flat bevel.
- Exceptional Durability: Crafted from diamond, the hardest abrasive available, for long-lasting use.
Unmatched Material Versatility
The DC-250 Diamond Wheel Coarse stands out for its ability to sharpen an extensive array of materials. Its compatibility extends across the Tormek T-8 Original, Tormek T-8 Custom, Tormek T-7, and previous models, accommodating a 250 mm (9 7/8″) diameter grinding wheel.
While the DC-250 excels in material removal, it is recommended to follow up with a finer grinding wheel, such as the DF-250 Diamond Wheel Fine or DE-250 Diamond Wheel Extra Fine, for achieving a superior surface finish.
Simplifying Repeat Sharpening
The consistent shape and size of the DC-250 facilitate easy jig setting and repeat sharpening, making it highly beneficial for those who frequently sharpen the same tools. This feature is invaluable for maintaining precision and efficiency in your sharpening routine.
Achieving a Flat Bevel
The ability to sharpen on the side of the wheel is a unique advantage, especially for smaller tools. This method ensures a completely flat bevel, enhancing the tool’s performance. The use of the MB-102 Multi Base, alongside specific jigs, supports and controls the sharpening process, delivering outstanding results.
Extended Service Life with Rust Protection
Each DC-250 Diamond Wheel Coarse comes with ACC-150 Anti-Corrosion Concentrate, crucial for preventing rust and extending the wheel’s lifespan. Using water during sharpening not only prolongs the wheel’s life but also enhances the sharpening experience by providing a smoother surface.
The DC-250 Diamond Wheel Coarse is a robust addition to the Tormek T-8 system, offering rapid material removal and the flexibility to sharpen a broad range of materials. Its consistent performance, coupled with the ability to achieve a flat bevel and its exceptional durability, make it an essential tool for any serious sharpener seeking efficiency and precision in their work.

REVIEWS
Statements from Tormek Friends
I've been using Tormek's diamond grinding wheels for over two years for both my production and my teaching, and it's delivered some really fantastic results in that time. I especially like the fact that the surface stays flat all the time, and that I always get a perfectly sharpened edge in no time. I've found I get much better results when I grind using water as a lubricant, which also keeps the wheel clean without further maintenance.
Using Tormek diamond wheels is a dream come true. Personally, I still prefer to use water because it keeps both the tool's edge and the grinding wheel clean, but dry sharpening works just as well. The fact that it doesn't rust and that no truing of the grinding wheel is necessary is a big plus, and with three grit sizes to choose from, this is an excellent addition to the
Tormek range.
