Overview
ISO 603-13:1999/Cor 1:1999 is part of the ISO 603 series on bonded abrasive products - dimensions and specifically covers grinding wheels for deburring and fettling on a vertical grinder. This publication is a Technical Corrigendum 1 to the original 1999 parts 1–16 series and clarifies a normative reference: in Paragraph 5 the reference to ISO 3290:1976 is replaced by ISO 3920:1976. The corrigendum ensures the dimensional series and cross-references remain accurate for manufacturers, users and regulators working with vertical-grinder abrasive wheels.
Key topics and requirements
The corrigendum and Part 13 title indicate the standard’s focus on dimensional and reference consistency within the ISO 603 family. Key topics associated with ISO 603-13:1999/Cor 1:1999 include:
- Dimensional classification of grinding wheels intended for deburring and fettling on vertical grinders (as part of the wider ISO 603 series).
- Normative references and updates (explicitly replacing ISO 3290:1976 with ISO 3920:1976 in Paragraph 5).
- Harmonization across the ISO 603 parts, supporting consistent terminology and interchangeability for bonded abrasive products used on different grinding machines.
- Compatibility and interoperability considerations between wheel dimensions and vertical grinder mounting systems (implicit in a dimensions standard within this series).
Note: The Technical Corrigendum addresses a specific reference change; detailed dimensional tables and tolerances are defined in the main ISO 603-13 document and the broader ISO 603 parts.
Applications
ISO 603-13:1999/Cor 1:1999 is practical for organizations involved with abrasive tools and metal finishing:
- Abrasive wheel manufacturers - to ensure product dimensions conform to the ISO 603 series and to maintain interoperability across markets.
- OEMs and machine builders - for specifying compatible grinding wheels for vertical grinders.
- Procurement and quality teams - to select compliant wheels and verify supplier documentation.
- Maintenance and safety engineers - to ensure replacement wheels match required dimensions and referenced standards.
- Standards specialists and testing labs - for correct referencing and consistent application of the ISO 603 family.
