Three Types of Blades
Extended Type Blades
Extended type blades should be used for most electrode dressing applications. They can be used with either the YNR-8F handheld dresser or with the SS-1 shank for use in a drill press. When using the handheld dresser, a minimum clearance of 1.5″ between the upper and lower electrodes (4 & 5 RW).
Extended Type 4RW
For 4RW electrodes, blades should be assembled with C-1 chuck, N-1 nut, and R-2A ring.
Extended Type 5RW
For 5RW electrodes, blades should be assembled with C-1 chuck, N-1 nut, and R-1 ring.
Extended Type 6RW
For 6RW electrodes, blades should be assembled with C-2 chuck and N-2 ring.
Extended Type 7RW
For 7RW electrodes, blades should be assembled with C-2 chuck and N-3 ring.
Flush-Type Tapered
Flush-type tapered blades are used when dressing tapered-nose type welding electrodes such as CMW 322-0844-44 or Tuffaloy FA-25214-16.
Flush-Type Tapered 4RW
For 4RW electrodes, assemble these blades with a C-3 chuck.
Flush-Type Tapered 5RW
For 5RW electrodes use a C-4 chuck.
Flush-Type Straight Blades
Flush-type straight blades are similar to the extended-type in that they are used to dress 4 & 5 RW electrodes but require a clearance of only 0.75″ between the upper and lower electrodes.
Flush-Type Straight 4RW
For 4RW electrodes, blades should be assembled with a C-6A chuck.
Flush-Type Straight 5RW
For 5RW electrodes, blades should be assembled with a C-5 chuck.
