3M 7000046067 Scotch-brite Exl Deburring Wheel 12 Inch

Product Description

The 3M 7000046067 is a convolute deburring and finishing wheel from the Scotch-Brite EXL line, built for high-production metalworking and surface finishing operations. The wheel features a hard, dense, and conformable construction that deburrs, finishes, and polishes metals, composites, and glass in a single step. At 12 inches in diameter and 1.69 inches in face width, it mounts to bench grinders and automated finishing equipment. The convolute build keeps the wheel running true and smooth throughout its service life, while a unique resin system minimizes smearing and reduces cleanup time between operations.

This wheel is suited for deburring stamped parts, laser-cut components, and castings, as well as finishing operations following belt sanding. Its conformable nature keeps the abrasive in continuous contact with complex contours and irregular profiles, making it a practical choice for both manual grinding stations and robotic processing cells. Compatible substrates include ferrous and non-ferrous metals, composites, and glass. The wheel is sold individually.

Key Features

• Hard, dense, conformable construction deburrs and finishes without undercutting, gouging, or distorting the workpiece
• Convolute design keeps the wheel running smooth for a consistent finish throughout wheel life
• Unique resin system minimizes smearing, reducing post-operation surface cleaning
• Minimizes heat buildup, reducing the risk of discoloration or warping on heat-sensitive substrates
• Effective on all types of metals, composites, and glass, reducing the need to swap wheels between tasks
• Conformability supports continuous abrasive contact on complex-shaped parts in robotic processing

Compatibility

Designed for use on ferrous and non-ferrous metals, composites, and glass surfaces; suitable for bench grinder and automated finishing equipment setups where a convolute deburring wheel of 12-inch diameter is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified operator familiar with abrasive wheel safety. Verify that the arbor size, spindle speed, and equipment RPM rating are compatible with this wheel before mounting. Always use proper flanges and guards per ANSI B7.1 or applicable equipment manufacturer guidelines. Power down and lock out the equipment before mounting or removing the wheel.
