Flywheel Centering Cone 6.875-8.10" (1-7/8"I.D.)

The Flywheel Centering Cone is a crucial accessory for accurately positioning flywheels on Kwik-Way/Van Norman flywheel grinders before grinding. This cone is designed to accommodate flywheels with outer diameters ranging from 6.875 inches to 8.10 inches and features a 1-⅞ inch inner diameter (I.D.) to fit the machine’s spindle. Precise centering is vital for achieving accurate grinding results.

The Flywheel Centering Cone is an essential component used in Kwik-Way and Van Norman flywheel grinders to ensure the accurate mounting and centering of flywheels prior to the resurfacing process. The accuracy of the ground flywheel is significantly dependent on the precision of its mounting. Centering cones are specifically engineered to match common flywheel center bore sizes. This particular centering cone is designed to accommodate flywheels with inner diameters between 6.875 inches (6-⅞”) and 8.10 inches.

This cone features a central bore with an inner diameter (I.D.) of 1-⅞ inches. This I.D. is critical for ensuring a proper fit onto the machine’s table. Once the correct size centering cone is selected, it is used in conjunction with a centering cone bolt (not included) to securely fasten the flywheel to the grinder’s table. For applications demanding the highest level of centering accuracy, a dial indicator can be employed to fine-tune the flywheel’s position before tightening.

There are various standard and optional centering cones and sets for Kwik-Way/Van Norman FG4000 and FG5000/FG10000 models, including size ranges from 1-1.75” up to 5”, and specific sets like the Small Bore/VW Centering Cone Set (794-8107-90) and the HD Universal Centering Cone & Spacer Set (794-8107-88), This large centering cone is only found in the optional Heavy Duty Truck Rotor Kit (794-8628-00) used to grind large vehicle disc brake rotors.
