3M 7010328937 Scotch-brite Exl Unitized Wheel 5 in Ao

Product Description

The 3M 7010328937 is a Scotch-Brite EXL Unitized Wheel designed for smoothing, deburring, and surface finishing on metal alloys, plastics, and composites. Its soft, conformable construction keeps the abrasive material in consistent contact with the workpiece, including parts with complex or irregular profiles. The aluminum oxide (AO) abrasive provides reliable cut and finish performance across a range of densities and grades, from very soft and conformable to hard and aggressive. This wheel is suited for bench grinder, arbor, or automated robotic finishing setups used in fabrication and manufacturing environments.

This unitized wheel is used in metal fabrication shops, machine shops, and light industrial finishing operations. It is appropriate for edge deburring, pre-finishing, and surface preparation on ferrous and non-ferrous metals as well as many plastics and composite materials. The 5 inch diameter and 3/8 inch arbor fit standard bench grinders and spindle-mounted finishing equipment. The wheel is constructed to run in both clockwise and counterclockwise directions, making it flexible across different machine configurations.

Key Features

• Conformable construction keeps abrasive in contact with complex-shaped and contoured parts
• Runs clockwise or counterclockwise for compatibility with varied machine setups
• Minimizes heat build-up to protect heat-sensitive base materials during finishing
• Resists smearing for cleaner surfaces and reduced prep time between operations
• Wheel edge can be dressed for deburring, finishing, and polishing applications
• Suitable for robotic and automated processing environments

Compatibility

Designed for use on standard bench grinders, spindle arbors, and automated finishing equipment accepting a 3/8 inch arbor bore and a 5 inch diameter wheel.

Installation Notes

Mount to a compatible arbor or spindle following the equipment manufacturer's arbor size and RPM rating specifications. Power down and lock out the machine before mounting or removing the wheel. Inspect the wheel for damage before each use and do not exceed the rated maximum operating speed marked on the wheel or its packaging. Wheel dressing should be performed with appropriate tooling to maintain edge geometry during extended use.
