The wheel is constructed with a soft, conformable silicon carbide non-woven web that allows it to follow flat and contoured surfaces closely. This makes it well suited for precision finishing work where tight tolerances must be maintained. Fabricators, machinists, and metal finishing technicians are the primary installers. The 500 Series soft density construction delivers a fine finish without aggressive stock removal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis wheel is used in applications requiring controlled, light-touch surface work on smaller areas of flat or contoured parts. Silicon carbide mineral makes it compatible with ferrous and non-ferrous metals, including exotic alloys and titanium, as well as composite materials. The quick change arbor interface allows fast wheel swaps on compatible right-angle tools, supporting higher throughput in production and repair environments. It is sold individually and suited for both shop floor and field finishing operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSoft density silicon carbide non-woven construction conforms to flat and contoured surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSuitable for ferrous metals, non-ferrous metals, exotic alloys, titanium, and composites\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOpen web design resists loading, extending usable service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCuts faster than buff and blend non-woven products while maintaining surface finesse\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eQuick change interface enables rapid disc swaps, reducing downtime on compatible tools\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDelivers fine blending and polishing results under strict tolerance requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitment for quick change right-angle grinders and die grinders accepting 3 inch unitized quick change wheels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by metal finishing technicians and fabricators using compatible quick change right-angle or die grinder tools. Power down and disconnect the tool from its power source before mounting or removing the wheel. Confirm the tool arbor type matches the quick change interface before attaching. Always wear appropriate eye and face protection, and verify wheel condition before each use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 500 Series\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbrasive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Unitized Non-Woven\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMineral\u003c\/strong\u003e: Silicon Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDensity\u003c\/strong\u003e: Soft\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7.31 x 4.19 x 3.88 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.491 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 051115352251\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3M\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7000046996\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"3M","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51347902529842,"sku":"7000046996","price":138.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310528686.jpg?v=1782115906","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/3m-7000046996-quick-change-unitized-wheel-3-inch","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
