3M 7010329074 Scotch-brite Metal Finishing Wheel 12 in

Product Description

The 3M 7010329074 is a Scotch-Brite MF-WL Metal Finishing Wheel designed for producing uniform brushed, satin, and mill finishes on stainless steel and other metals. The wheel uses an aluminum oxide abrasive in an open-web, convolute construction wound around a fiber core. At 12 inches in diameter with a 5-inch arbor, it mounts to stationary finishing equipment used in metal fabrication and surface prep applications. The controlled abrasive action delivers consistent cutting power without gouging or undercutting the workpiece. Metalworkers, fabricators, and maintenance technicians working with stainless, brass, aluminum, and similar metals are the primary users of this wheel.

This finishing wheel is used in applications that require blending and matching No. 3 or No. 4 mill finishes on stainless steel sheet and fabricated components. Common workpieces include cutlery, appliance trim, builders hardware, and plumbing fixtures. The high conformability of the wheel allows it to follow irregular or contoured surfaces, making it suitable for parts that are not flat or uniform in profile. It is well suited to production environments where consistent finish repeatability across multiple pieces is required.

Key Features

• Open-web construction resists loading and runs cool during extended use on stainless steel, brass, and aluminum
• Convolute winding around a fiber core produces smooth, fine, uniform surface finishes
• Controlled abrasive action prevents undercutting and gouging on finished workpieces
• High conformability allows effective finishing of irregular and contoured surfaces
• Produces consistent satin, brushed, and mill finishes suitable for decorative metal components

Compatibility

Designed for use on stationary metal finishing equipment accepting a 5-inch arbor with a 12-inch diameter wheel. Suitable for stainless steel, brass, aluminum, and other non-ferrous and ferrous metals requiring satin or brushed surface finishes.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified personnel familiar with stationary abrasive finishing equipment. Disconnect and lock out power to the machine before mounting or removing the wheel. Verify that the spindle arbor size and machine RPM rating are compatible with this wheel before operation. Follow all applicable ANSI B7 standards and machine manufacturer guidelines for wheel mounting and guard clearance.
