The Tormek Original Grindstone is Tormek's standard aluminum oxide grinding wheel, in two sizes: the SG-250 for the T-8 and the SG-200 for the T-4.

It grinds most steel grades, including HSS. With the SP-650 Stone Grader you can change its surface to work like anything from 220 to 1000 grit, coarse for shaping and fine for a smooth edge, on the same stone.

Engineer Torgny Jansson founded Tormek in 1973 to build a modern version of the old Swedish water-cooled grindstone. The name is short for Torgny's Mekaniska, and the very first model was driven by an electric hand drill. Tormek is based in Lindesberg, Sweden, where all of its product development, engineering and production still take place.

  • Options: SG-250, 250 x 50 mm, for the T-8, T-7 and older 250 mm models; SG-200, 200 x 40 mm, for the T-4, T-3 and older 200 mm models
  • Material: aluminum oxide
  • Grit: 220 to 1000, set with the SP-650 Stone Grader
  • Steels: most grades, including HSS
  • Made in: Sweden by Tormek
