3M 7000120682 Scotch-brite Exl Unitized Wheel 6 in

Product Description

The 3M 7000120682 is a Scotch-Brite EXL Unitized Abrasive Wheel designed for smoothing, deburring, and finishing metal alloys, plastics, and composites. Built with aluminum oxide abrasive and a layered, unitized construction, this wheel delivers consistent cut and surface finish across a wide range of fabrication and finishing tasks. At 6 inches in diameter with a 1-inch arbor hole, it mounts directly to bench grinders and right-angle tool setups. The soft, conformable structure keeps the abrasive in contact with irregular and complex part geometries, making it well suited for both manual and robotic processing environments.

This unitized wheel is used in metal fabrication, welding prep and cleanup, and general industrial finishing operations. Applications include edge deburring on cut or stamped metal parts, surface conditioning on alloy components, and finish work on plastics and composites where heat sensitivity is a concern. The wheel is available in multiple density grades ranging from soft and conformable for light finishing to hard and aggressive for maximum cut, allowing the correct grade to be matched to the material and finish requirement.

Key Features

• Layered unitized construction runs clockwise or counterclockwise without performance loss
• Conformable consistency maintains abrasive contact on complex-shaped and contoured workpieces
• Resists smearing for cleaner finished surfaces and reduced post-process prep
• Minimizes heat buildup, reducing thermal impact on heat-sensitive metals, plastics, and composites
• Wheel edge can be dressed for precise deburring, finishing, and polishing control
• Density and grade options accommodate a broad range of material removal and finish requirements

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitment unitized wheel for bench grinders and right-angle finishing tools accepting a 1-inch arbor and 6-inch diameter wheel.

Installation Notes

Install on a bench grinder or compatible spindle tool rated for the wheel diameter and operating RPM before mounting. Power down and lock out the tool before changing wheels. Confirm the arbor bore, flange fit, and maximum RPM rating of the machine match the wheel specifications before operation. Wheel dressing should be performed with appropriate tooling to maintain edge geometry.
