I found a stack of abrasive wheels in storage at a saw mill. The newest they could be is about 1980. The sticker on the hub says M66645. 2500 RPM max. They have a 5/8" SQUARE hole - according to the calipers I was willing to use its right on 0.625. Same calipers say 4.589" diameter on the one I checked. I included a picture. For reference, the background is white powder coat (a little dinged up, but where there isnt obviously dirt looks bright white in person)...)
Backstory is they came from storage at a sawmill. They NEWEST they could be is about 1980s. I'm assuming these belong to some equipment from the "sharpening shed". Not sure when they transitioned to insert points and carbide on the big saws, but I know they still had to grind blades for the "small" stuff. They did a LOT of mill work - windows, doors, trim, etc. So they had plenty of blades and tooling to sharpen.
