Overview

ISO 603-12:1999 is an international standard developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) that specifies the nominal dimensions of bonded abrasive grinding wheels designed for deburring and fettling on straight portable grinders. This standard forms part 12 of the ISO 603 series, which covers dimensions for various types of bonded abrasive products. Intended for use by manufacturers, suppliers, and end-users, ISO 603-12:1999 ensures uniformity, compatibility, and safety of grinding wheels used in manual grinding operations where the workpiece is stationary, and the grinder is hand-guided.

Key Topics

• Grinding Wheel Types and Dimensions
  The standard defines six specific types of grinding wheels with detailed dimensional parameters in millimeters:

  • Type 1: Flat grinding wheels (Meule plate)
  • Type 4: Biconical grinding wheels (Meule biconique)
  • Type 16: Conical end wheels with nut mounting
  • Type 18: Cylindrical wheels with nut mounting
  • Type 18R: Spherical end wheels with nut mounting
  • Type 19: Ogive-shaped wheels with nut mounting

• Dimensional Specifications
  Each type is accompanied by precise measurements including diameter (DT), thickness (H), and other geometric parameters essential for fitting and performance on straight grinders.

• Designation and Marking
  The standard outlines a clear system for designating a bonded abrasive product. This includes the product type, dimensions, abrasive nature, grain size, grade, structure, bonding agent, and maximum operating speed, enabling precise identification and traceability.

• Tolerances and Balancing
  ISO 603-12 references other standards for tolerances of run-out and dimensions (ISO 13942) and static balancing (ISO 6103) to ensure safety, performance, and longevity of the grinding wheels.

Applications

ISO 603-12:1999 is essential for industries requiring precision deburring and fettling of metal, plastic, and composite parts using portable straight grinders. Typical applications include:

• Metal Fabrication and Finishing
  Used to remove burrs and smooth rough edges on machined or cast components.

• Maintenance and Repair Operations
  Portable grinders fitted with ISO 603-12 compliant wheels ensure consistent performance in onsite repair tasks.

• Automotive and Aerospace Manufacturing
  Enables high-quality surface preparation with standardized grinding wheels for critical deburring operations.

• Tool and Die Making
  Provides uniform grinding tool dimensions crucial for detailed fettling.

Using grinding wheels compliant with ISO 603-12 ensures compatibility with standard portable grinders, improves operator safety, and enhances production efficiency.

Related Standards

ISO 603-12:1999 is part of the broader ISO 603 series focused on bonded abrasive product dimensions. Key related standards include:

• ISO 603-1 to ISO 603-16 – Cover various grinding wheel types such as cylindrical, internal, and cutoff wheels.
• ISO 525:1999 – General requirements for bonded abrasive products including quality and safety criteria.
• ISO 6103:1999 – Static balancing and control methods for grinding wheels.
• ISO 13942 – Limits and tolerances for wheel run-out and deviation.
• ISO 8486-1 and ISO 8486-2 – Determination and designation of abrasive grain size distributions.

These standards work collectively to ensure consistent dimensions, performance, safety, and quality across the range of bonded abrasives used worldwide.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO
member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical
committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has
the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in
liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.
Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
International Standard ISO 603-12 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 29, Small tools, subcommittee
SC 5, Grinding wheels and abrasives.
This first edition, together with ISO 603-1:1999 to ISO 603-11:1999 and ISO 603-13:1999 to ISO 603-16:1999,

Avant-propos
L'ISO (Organisation internationale de normalisation) est une fédération mondiale d'organismes nationaux de
normalisation (comités membres de l'ISO). L'élaboration des Normes internationales est en général confiée aux
comités techniques de l'ISO. Chaque comité membre intéressé par une étude a le droit de faire partie du comité
technique créé à cet effet. Les organisations internationales, gouvernementales et non gouvernementales, en
liaison avec l'ISO, participent également aux travaux. L'ISO collabore étroitement avec la Commission
électrotechnique internationale (CEI) en ce qui concerne la normalisation électrotechnique.
Les Normes internationales sont rédigées conformément aux règles données dans les Directives ISO/CEI, Partie 3.
Les projets de Normes internationales adoptés par les comités techniques sont soumis aux comités membres pour
vote. Leur publication comme Normes internationales requiert l'approbation de 75 % au moins des comités
membres votants.
La Norme internationale ISO 603-12 a été élaborée par le comité technique ISO/TC 29, Petit outillage, sous-comité
SC 5, Meules et abrasifs.
