1911 Auto Ejection Port Grinding Stones - Ejection Port Grinding Stone Kit

Specifications

Pros

• Cobalt-impregnated aluminum oxide stones are made for shaping hardened 1911 slides.
• Includes B51 and B42 stones for short or long style ejection port notches.
• Produces a smooth, ready-to-finish surface for polishing or bead-blasting.
• Stones can be reground and reshaped for repeated use.
• Kit includes instructions for straightforward setup and use.

Considerations & Trade-offs

• Designed specifically for shaping the ejection port roll-over notch on 1911 Auto slides, so it is a specialized kit rather than a general-purpose stone set.
• The kit is supplied with 120-grit stones, which supports material removal and shaping but still leaves a ready-to-finish surface that may need polishing or bead-blasting afterward.
• The included B51 and B42 stones are intended for different steps in the notch work, so the kit may require some familiarity with the process to use effectively.
• The stones can be reground and reshaped, but the hardened steel shanks are 1/8 inch (3 mm) diameter, so compatibility depends on the tool setup being used.
