3M 7010310368 Unitized Abrasive Wheel Silicon Carbide 8 in

Product Description

The 3M 7010310368 is a unitized abrasive wheel from the Standard Abrasives Silicon Carbide 600 Series. It is designed for medium-pressure finishing and polishing operations on flat or contoured workpiece surfaces. The wheel features a soft to medium density construction built around silicon carbide mineral, which delivers fine surface finishes and consistent polishing action. At 8 inches in diameter, it fits standard right-angle grinders and bench-mounted finishing equipment. The open web design resists loading, extending service life. This wheel is installed and used by metal fabricators, machinists, and finishing technicians working in production or job-shop environments.

The 7010310368 is suited for medium-pressure finishing on ferrous metals, non-ferrous metals, exotic alloys, titanium, and composite materials. It performs on both flat surfaces and contoured profiles, making it applicable across a broad range of part geometries. The 600 Series designation indicates a step up in edge durability compared to 500 Series unitized wheels, which makes it appropriate when edge integrity and abrasive life are priorities in the finishing process. Minimum order quantity is 4 wheels per purchase.

Key Features

Installation Notes

Unitized abrasive wheels should be mounted by a qualified operator following the tool manufacturer's wheel guard and arbor specifications. Always confirm the tool's rated RPM meets or exceeds the wheel's maximum operating speed before mounting. Disconnect and lock out power to the tool before changing wheels. Inspect the wheel for damage before each use and discard any wheel that shows cracking, delamination, or visible defects.
