3M 7000045957 Scotch-brite Unitized Wheel 2 in 1/4 in Arbor

Product Description

The 3M 7000045957 is a Scotch-Brite Cut and Polish Unitized Wheel built for aggressive deburring, blending, and finishing on harder metals. Measuring 2 inches in diameter with a 1/4 inch arbor, this tightly layered, non-woven wheel carries a high concentration of aluminum oxide abrasive mineral. It delivers fast cutting action and a bright, consistent finish from first use through the end of the wheel's life. The unitized construction holds its shape and density throughout use, making it a reliable choice for metalworking technicians and fabricators who need controlled, repeatable results on demanding substrates.

This wheel is suited for work on stainless steel, carbon steel, and high nickel alloys in both shop and field environments. Its compact 2 inch diameter and narrow profile make it practical for portable tool applications where access to tight areas or small workpieces is required. Typical applications include weld blending, surface conditioning, and edge deburring on fabricated metal components. The wheel can be run in either clockwise or counterclockwise rotation, adding flexibility for various tool configurations.

Key Features

• High concentration of aluminum oxide mineral for fast, aggressive cutting on harder metals
• Tightly layered unitized construction operates in clockwise or counterclockwise directions
• Flexible, non-woven structure provides controlled abrasive action that resists undercutting and gouging
• Scotch-Brite material resists loading and wears at a uniform rate for continuous cutting throughout wheel life
• Compact 2 inch diameter suits portable tool use and tight-access applications
• Available in medium to hard densities for a range of blending and finishing requirements

Compatibility

Designed for use with portable rotary tools and bench-mounted spindles accepting a 1/4 inch arbor. Suitable for deburring, blending, and finishing operations on stainless steel, carbon steel, and high nickel alloys.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified metalworking or fabrication personnel familiar with abrasive wheel mounting procedures. Ensure the tool is powered off and unplugged before mounting or removing the wheel. Verify that the tool's rated RPM meets or exceeds the wheel's rated speed before operation. Inspect the wheel for damage prior to each use and follow all applicable ANSI abrasive wheel safety standards.
