3M 7010309296 Scotch-brite Exl Unitized Wheel 1.5 in Ao

Product Description

The 3M 7010309296 is a Scotch-Brite EXL Unitized Abrasive Wheel designed for smoothing, deburring, and finishing metal alloys, plastics, and composites. Its soft, conformable construction keeps the abrasive in contact with workpiece surfaces throughout the cut, reducing heat buildup and minimizing smearing. The wheel measures 1.5 inches in diameter with a 0.188 inch arbor bore and uses aluminum oxide (AO) abrasive grain. It weighs 0.02 pounds. Metalworkers, fabricators, and finishing technicians install and operate this wheel in standard bench grinders, die grinders, and automated robotic finishing cells.

This unitized wheel is suited for edge finishing, deburring, and surface preparation on metal alloys including steel, stainless, and aluminum, as well as many plastics and composites. The 1.5 inch diameter and 0.188 inch arbor make it appropriate for handheld rotary tools and small-spindle bench equipment commonly used in precision fabrication, aerospace component finishing, and general metalworking shops. Its conformable structure makes it particularly effective for parts with complex profiles or contoured geometries.

Key Features

• Soft, conformable unitized construction keeps abrasive in contact with complex part shapes
• Aluminum oxide grain smooths, deburrs, and finishes metal alloys, plastics, and composites
• Minimizes heat buildup to protect heat-sensitive materials during finishing
• Resists smearing for cleaner surfaces and reduced prep between operations
• Layered construction supports both clockwise and counterclockwise operation
• Wheel edge can be dressed for precision deburring and polishing applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style abrasive replacement wheel for small rotary tools and bench grinders accepting a 0.188 inch arbor and 1.5 inch diameter wheel.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified operator familiar with abrasive wheel safety per ANSI B7.1 guidelines. Always power down and de-energize the tool before mounting or removing the wheel. Confirm the tool spindle speed does not exceed the rated maximum RPM marked on the wheel or packaging. Inspect the wheel for damage before each use and never use a cracked or deformed wheel.
