Tormek T-8

The Tormek T-8 sharpening machine proves that simplicity and precision can be perfectly integrated in a powerful and versatile system. This water cooled sharpening system gives you the best conditions possible for a successful sharpening with top results. The Tormek T-8 is ideal for quality-conscious do-it-yourselfers as well as professionals.

Unbeatable precision in your sharpening

The advanced design ensures an unbeatable precision for the Universal Support, which is the foundation of the Tormek sharpening system, since it controls all grinding jigs and accessories. The sleeves for the Universal Support are integrated in this model's fully cast machine housing. This allows you to have full control and maximum accuracy in your sharpening.

Highest quality made in Sweden

The characteristic drive system of Tormek is also implemented in Tormek T-8. The efficient system manages to maintain a constant speed, even under full load - something unique for Tormek’s sharpeners. Tormek Original Grindstone SG-250 sharpens all qualities of steel, including HSS and gives you two different cutting actions in one wheel (220 grit and 1000 grit). The powerful AC motor is designed to drive the full size grindstone during continuous use.

Smart details

The water trough is equipped with a screw lift for an easier fitting. It also has a double function magnetic scraper; during sharpening the magnet collects steel particles and after sharpening the scraper will make it easy to clean the water trough. For long tools that may drip water outside the water trough (like chef’s knives and planer blades), you can easily fit the included water chute onto the edge of the water chute.

Another worked through detail is the stainless steel main shaft with Tormek’s unique EzyLock nut, which automatically set the stone to the right torque without tools. EzyLock also makes it easy to switch stone if you work with Tormek special stones SB-250, SJ-250 or one of our new Diamond Wheels.
