3M 7010329232 Scotch-brite Unitized Wheel 14 in Ao

Product Description

The 3M 7010329232 is a Scotch-Brite SST unitized abrasive wheel designed for deburring and surface finishing on demanding metals, including stainless steel and titanium. At 14 inches in diameter with a 1-1/4 inch arbor bore, this wheel uses aluminum oxide (AO) abrasive mineral in a layered, unitized construction that runs softer and more conformable than higher-density alternatives. It is well suited for fabricators, weld shops, and metal finishing operations that require consistent results on intricate shapes, tight contours, or narrow surface areas. The wheel weighs 2.56 pounds and ships as a single unit.

This wheel is designed for precision deburring, blending, and light finishing applications on hard alloys such as stainless steel and titanium, where heat generation and loading are common concerns. The unitized construction allows production of smaller diameters and narrower face widths than convolute wheel formats, making it a practical choice for detail work and contoured geometry. It is commonly used in metal fabrication, aerospace maintenance, and industrial finishing environments. The wheel runs on stationary bench grinders and portable angle grinders or flap wheel arbors equipped with the appropriate 1-1/4 inch spindle.

Key Features

• Layered unitized construction runs clockwise or counterclockwise without performance loss
• Resists loading and dissipates heat, extending usable wheel life on stainless and titanium
• Softer, more conformable than high-density wheels for finishing intricate shapes and contours
• Available in narrow widths and small diameters not achievable with convolute wheel formats
• Compatible with smaller stationary equipment and portable grinders

Compatibility

Designed for use on angle grinders, bench grinders, and arbor-mounted finishing equipment fitted with a 1-1/4 inch spindle arbor. Suitable for metal fabrication applications involving stainless steel, titanium, and similarly demanding alloys.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified operator familiar with abrasive wheel safety per ANSI B7.1 guidelines. Always confirm the machine speed rating does not exceed the maximum rated RPM of the wheel before mounting. Power down and de-energize the grinder completely before changing wheels. Inspect the wheel for cracks or damage prior to each use and never operate a damaged wheel.
