3M 7010328717 Scotch-brite Mu-wl 12 Inch Finishing Wheel

Product Description

The 3M 7010328717 Scotch-Brite MU-WL Multi-Finishing Wheel is a convolute-constructed abrasive wheel designed for cleaning and final finishing of stainless steel, aluminum, brass, copper, and other metals. Built with silicon carbide mineral and a soft, open non-woven web construction, it delivers controlled, cool-running abrasion that suits final finishing stages where conformability and lighter density are priorities. The wheel weighs 4.69 pounds and measures approximately 12.5 inches in diameter. Metal fabricators, surface finishing technicians, and maintenance professionals use this wheel where consistent, repeatable surface results are required.

This wheel is well suited for final finishing applications on both ferrous and non-ferrous metals in fabrication shops, maintenance facilities, and light industrial settings. Its highly conformable structure makes it effective on contoured, curved, and irregular surfaces where rigid abrasives leave inconsistent results. The combination of moderate aggressiveness and lighter density supports controlled wear throughout the product life, making it a reliable choice for production finishing lines and job-shop environments alike.

Key Features

• Convolute construction provides a balanced, smooth-running wheel throughout product life
• Open, non-woven web runs cool and reduces heat impact on heat-sensitive metals
• Highly conformable design delivers consistent finishing on contoured and curved surfaces
• Moderate aggressiveness and lighter density provide controlled wear for repeatable results
• Uniform silicon carbide grain suited for final finishing on stainless steel, ferrous, and non-ferrous metals

Compatibility

Designed for use on stainless steel, aluminum, brass, copper, and other ferrous and non-ferrous metals as stated by the manufacturer. Suitable for final finishing and cleaning applications on contoured and flat surfaces.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by metal finishing or fabrication technicians using compatible arbor-driven finishing equipment. Confirm the wheel bore, arbor size, and maximum RPM rating of the drive tool before mounting to avoid unsafe operation. Power down and lock out the drive unit before mounting or removing the wheel. Always follow ANSI B7.1 safe-practice guidelines for abrasive wheel mounting and use appropriate eye and face protection during operation.
