3M 7000011885 Scotch-brite Exl Deburring Wheel 8 Inch Fine

Product Description

The 3M 7000011885 Scotch-Brite EXL Deburring Wheel is a convolute-constructed abrasive wheel engineered for deburring, finishing, and polishing metals, composites, and glass. Its hard, dense, and conformable construction removes burrs left by stamping, laser cutting, and belt sanding without undercutting, gouging, or distorting the workpiece. The wheel measures 8 inches in diameter and is rated at a fine grit level. Installed on bench grinders, pedestal grinders, or automated robotic systems, this wheel delivers consistent surface quality with reduced heat buildup and minimal smearing.

This wheel is suited for both manual and automated metal finishing operations in fabrication shops, machine shops, and industrial production environments. It handles deburring and finishing tasks on stamped parts, laser-cut components, and belt-sanded workpieces. Its conformable characteristic keeps the abrasive in contact with irregular or complex-shaped surfaces, making it a practical choice for robotic processing lines where consistent contact pressure is required across varying part geometries.

Key Features

• Hard, dense, and conformable construction deburrs and finishes without undercutting or distorting the workpiece
• Convolute build keeps the wheel running smooth for a consistent, repeatable surface finish
• Effective on metals, composites, and glass — one wheel handles multiple material types
• Minimizes heat buildup to reduce risk of discoloration and warping on heat-sensitive substrates
• Unique resin system reduces smearing, cutting down post-process cleaning time
• Conformable design maintains abrasive contact on complex part profiles in robotic applications

Compatibility

Designed for use with bench grinders, pedestal grinders, and automated robotic finishing systems that accept convolute deburring wheels. Suitable for deburring and finishing metals, composites, and glass substrates.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified operator familiar with abrasive wheel mounting procedures. Always power down and lock out the grinder before mounting or removing the wheel. Verify that the grinder arbor speed does not exceed the maximum rated speed marked on the wheel. Inspect the wheel for damage before each use and follow ANSI B11 and applicable machine guarding requirements during operation.
