Effortless transition between grinding and honing

With the RB-180 you can quickly switch between grinding and honing (polishing) simply by rotating the machine 180°. This makes it easy to adjust the direction of rotation to suit the tool you are working with. Some tools require the stone to rotate towards the edge, while others require rotation away from it. The rotating base gives you full control – simply, safely and precisely.

Better ergonomics and workflow

The RB-180 is designed for maximum comfort. It is ultra-thin so the machine is not raised unnecessarily, allowing you to continue working in the same natural position. You avoid heavy lifting and the risk of spilling water when turning the machine. The rubber feet reduce vibrations and keep the machine stable during use.

Material and construction

The rotating base is made from strong, friction-optimised plastic that ensures both stability and smooth rotation. The design has been developed with a focus on durability and functionality – just like the rest of Tormek's accessories.

The Tormek RB-180 is compatible with the T-8, T-4, T-7 and T-3 models, as well as the older 2000, 1200, SA-250 and N-1500 models. It is an ideal accessory for anyone who wants a more efficient and ergonomic grinding set-up in the workshop or kitchen.
