3M 7000045788 Rubber Cushion Polishing Wheel

Product Description

The 3M 7000045788 is a rubber cushion polishing wheel designed to hold coated abrasive bands and belts securely in place during grinding and polishing operations. Its mechanically expandable rubber body expands on contact to grip the inside of the band or belt, preventing slipping under load. The wheel measures 1.5 inches in diameter, 1.5 inches in face width, and accepts a 0.25-inch arbor. It is sold individually and is well suited for deburring, blending, and surface finishing work in fabrication, maintenance, and metalworking environments.

This wheel is used with coated abrasive bands and belts on bench-mounted or portable rotary tools. It is a common fixture in metalworking shops, maintenance facilities, and light fabrication settings where consistent belt contact and secure fitment are needed for controlled finishing passes. The expandable design accommodates normal belt tolerances and keeps the abrasive centered during use.

Key Features

• Mechanically expandable rubber body grips the inside of the abrasive band or belt to prevent slipping
• 1.5 inches x 1.5 inches face dimensions with 0.25-inch arbor fit
• Compatible with 3M Coated Abrasive Bands and Belts
• Sold individually, one wheel per unit

Compatibility

Designed for use with 3M Coated Abrasive Bands and Belts. Consult the abrasive band or belt specifications to confirm correct wheel diameter and face width before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or maintenance technicians using standard rotary tool setups. Before mounting, power down and de-energize the tool completely. Slide the abrasive band or belt over the wheel, then seat the wheel on the arbor before starting the tool so the mechanical expansion locks the band in place under rotation. Inspect the band or belt for cracks or wear before each use.
