3M 7010365162 Scotch-brite Exl Unitized Wheel 2.5in Ao

Product Description

The 3M 7010365162 is a Scotch-Brite EXL Unitized Abrasive Wheel designed for smoothing, deburring, and finishing metal alloys, plastics, and composites. Built with a layered, unitized construction, the wheel delivers consistent abrasive action across the full face and edge. The aluminum oxide abrasive mineral resists smearing and minimizes heat buildup, making it suitable for heat-sensitive base materials. Metalworking fabricators, machinists, and finishing technicians use this wheel for edge work and surface preparation on parts that require a clean, controlled finish without excessive material removal.

This wheel suits bench grinder and right-angle die grinder applications in metal fabrication shops, manufacturing cells, and maintenance environments. The 2.5-inch diameter and 3/8-inch arbor fit standard mandrel configurations used in light to medium finishing operations. Its conformable consistency allows the abrasive to maintain contact with complex or irregular part geometries, including curved edges and contoured surfaces. The wheel is suited for both manual and robotic processing setups where consistent finish repeatability is required.

Key Features

• Layered, unitized construction runs clockwise or counterclockwise without delaminating
• Wheel edge can be dressed for precise deburring, finishing, and polishing
• Conformable consistency keeps abrasive contact on complex-shaped and contoured parts
• Resists smearing for cleaner surfaces and reduced pre-finishing preparation
• Minimizes heat buildup to protect heat-sensitive metals, plastics, and composites
• Available in multiple densities and grades from soft and conformable to hard and aggressive

Compatibility

Designed for use on metal alloys, many plastics, and composites; fits standard mandrels accepting a 3/8-inch arbor and is suited for bench grinders and die grinders commonly used in fabrication and finishing applications.

Installation Notes

A licensed or qualified metalworking technician should mount the wheel per ANSI B7.1 safety standards for abrasive wheels. Power down and lock out the grinder before mounting or changing wheels. Verify that the spindle speed of the tool does not exceed the maximum RPM rating of the wheel before operation. Inspect the wheel for damage before each use and never exceed the rated arbor bore size.
