3M 7000046304 Deburring Wheel Aluminum Oxide Density 5

Product Description

The 3M 7000046304 is a unitized deburring wheel designed for surface finishing, edge deburring, and light stock removal on metal workpieces. Built with aluminum oxide abrasive at a density grade of 5 and a fine grade cut, this wheel delivers consistent, controlled cut action without aggressive material removal. The unitized construction bonds abrasive fibers throughout the wheel body, so performance stays consistent as the wheel wears down. At 3 inches in diameter with a 0.5 inch face width and a 0.25 inch center hole, it fits standard spindle tooling used across a range of grinding and finishing equipment. Licensed tradespeople and metalworking professionals use this wheel for finishing operations that require uniform surface texture.

This wheel is suited for use in light industrial and fabrication environments where consistent deburring and surface conditioning are required. The 0.25 inch center hole and 3 inch diameter make it compatible with high-speed rotary tooling commonly found on die grinders, inline sanders, centerless grinders, manual backstands, and pressure assist backstands. It is appropriate for finishing ferrous and non-ferrous metals where a controlled, repeatable result is needed rather than heavy material removal.

Key Features

• Aluminum oxide abrasive construction for consistent cut on metal surfaces
• Density 5 rating provides a medium-density unitized structure that balances cut rate and surface finish
• Fine grade abrasive delivers controlled finishing without excessive stock removal
• Unitized wheel design maintains consistent performance throughout the wheel life as it wears
• Rated to 15,100 RPM for use with high-speed rotary power tools
• Compatible with centerless grinders, die grinders, inline sanders, manual backstands, and pressure assist backstands

Compatibility

Compatible with centerless grinders, die grinders, inline sanders, manual backstands, and pressure assist backstands. The 0.25 inch center hole fits standard spindle arbors used on these tool types.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified operator familiar with abrasive wheel safety. Before mounting, power down and de-energize the tool completely and confirm the spindle arbor matches the 0.25 inch center hole diameter. Do not exceed the rated maximum of 15,100 RPM. Always inspect the wheel for cracks or damage before each use, and ensure the work rest and guards are properly adjusted before starting the tool.
