3M 7010364316 Finishing Flap Brush 8x1x3 Silicon Carbide

Product Description

The 3M 7010364316 is a finishing flap brush designed for light-duty cleaning and finishing applications across a range of surfaces. Individual abrasive sheets are adhered at a 90-degree angle to a central core, creating a conformable, three-dimensional open-web structure. The abrasive mineral is super fine grade silicon carbide, rated at a medium hardness density of 5S. Synthetic fibers and abrasive particles are integrated throughout the open web material, allowing the brush to flex and conform to irregular or contoured surfaces while maintaining consistent finishing action. This tool is commonly used by fabricators, machinists, and finishing technicians.

This flap brush is suited for light-duty surface finishing and cleaning tasks in industrial, manufacturing, and maintenance environments. The open-web construction resists loading, making it effective for work on metal, composite, and similar materials where consistent scratch pattern and surface preparation are required. The 8 inch diameter, 1 inch face width, and 3 inch arbor hole dimension fit standard bench or pedestal grinder setups used in shop environments.

Key Features

• Super fine grade silicon carbide abrasive mineral for refined finishing results
• Individual sheets adhered at 90 degrees to core for consistent, controlled cut
• Three-dimensional open-web construction conforms to contoured surfaces
• Medium hardness density (5S) balances flexibility and abrasive aggressiveness
• Synthetic fiber and abrasive particle integration throughout the web material
• Designed for light-duty cleaning and finishing — not aggressive stock removal

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style abrasive flap brush for use on standard bench or pedestal grinders and rotary finishing equipment accepting an 8 inch diameter wheel with a 3 inch arbor.

Installation Notes

Mounting should be performed by qualified shop personnel familiar with abrasive wheel safety per ANSI B7.1 standards. Ensure the grinder is fully powered down and locked out before mounting or removing the brush. Verify that the machine spindle speed does not exceed the maximum rated RPM of the brush before operation. Inspect the flap brush for damage before each use and do not use if sheets are torn or the core is compromised.
