3M 7010329331 Scotch-brite Metal Finishing Wheel 8 in

Product Description

The 3M 7010329331 Scotch-Brite MF-WL Metal Finishing Wheel is a convolute abrasive wheel engineered to deliver consistent brushed, satin, and mill finishes on metal surfaces. Built around a fiber core with an open-web construction, it combines high conformability with controlled abrasive cutting action. At 8 inches in diameter with a 3-inch arbor, it mounts to bench grinders and finishing machines used by fabricators, plumbers, and metalworking professionals. The aluminum oxide abrasive provides uniform stock removal without gouging or undercutting the workpiece surface.

This wheel is suited for blending and matching 3 or 4 mill finishes on stainless steel, as well as producing brushed or satin finishes on a wide range of metal components. Common applications include cutlery, appliance trim, builders hardware, and plumbing fixtures. It performs on stainless steel, brass, aluminum, and other non-ferrous and ferrous metals. The open-web structure resists loading and dissipates heat, making it effective for both flat and contoured or irregular surface profiles.

Key Features

• Convolute construction wound around a fiber core delivers smooth, uniform finishing action
• Open-web design resists loading and runs cool to reduce heat buildup on the workpiece
• Controlled abrasive cutting action prevents undercutting and gouging
• High conformability allows effective finishing on irregular or contoured metal surfaces
• Compatible with stainless steel, brass, aluminum, and other metals

Compatibility

Designed for use on stainless steel, brass, aluminum, and other metals requiring brushed, satin, or mill finish results. Suitable for bench grinders and finishing machines with a 3-inch arbor bore.

Installation Notes
