3M 7010328944 Scotch-brite Metal Finishing Wheel 16 in

Product Description

The 3M 7010328944 Scotch-Brite MF-WL Metal Finishing Wheel is a convolute abrasive wheel designed for surface finishing operations on stainless steel, brass, aluminum, and other metals. Built around a fiber core with an open-web construction, it delivers consistent cutting action while running cool and resisting loading. At 16 inches in diameter with a 10-inch arbor, it fits industrial finishing equipment and is well suited for production-level metal surface work. The controlled abrasive action helps prevent undercutting or gouging, making it reliable for repeatable, professional results. Licensed trade fabricators and metal finishers are the primary installers of this wheel type.

This wheel is used in applications requiring uniform brushed, satin, or mill finishes on flat and contoured metal surfaces. It is effective for blending and matching 3 or 4 mill finishes on stainless steel and for creating brushed or satin finishes on cutlery, appliance trim, builders hardware, and plumbing fixtures. Its high conformability makes it suitable for irregular or contoured workpieces where consistent finish quality across the surface profile is required.
