3M 7100023491 Scotch-brite Exl Pro Deburring Wheel 6 Inch

Product Description

The 3M 7100023491 Scotch-Brite EXL PRO EP-WL is a convolute deburring wheel engineered for high-volume off-hand grinding and finishing operations. At 6 inches in diameter, this wheel removes burrs and radiuses sharp edges on metal workpieces with less applied pressure than standard deburring wheels. The convolute construction maintains a smooth, consistent surface throughout the life of the wheel, and a unique resin system minimizes smearing to reduce surface cleanup time. At 0.9 pounds, the wheel is light enough for extended handheld use at a bench grinder or off-hand tool station. Metalworking fabricators, machinists, and finishing technicians are the primary installers and users of this product.

This deburring wheel is suited for off-hand operations on metal parts requiring burr removal, edge radiusing, and light surface conditioning. It performs well on ferrous and non-ferrous metals in fabrication shops, machine shops, and production finishing environments. The convolute construction conforms to irregular surfaces, making it practical for parts with varied geometries. The wheel is designed to minimize heat buildup, which reduces the risk of discoloration and thermal warping on heat-sensitive workpieces.

Key Features

• Convolute construction delivers smooth, consistent results throughout the wheel life
• Requires less pressure than standard EXL wheels for faster material removal
• Unique resin system minimizes smearing and reduces surface cleaning time
• Minimizes heat buildup to protect heat-sensitive workpieces from discoloration and warping
• Achieves 30 to 50 percent longer service life than the original EXL deburring wheel
• Lightweight at 0.9 pounds for reduced operator fatigue during extended off-hand use

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement or upgrade for the original 3M Scotch-Brite EXL convolute deburring wheel series, suited for standard bench grinder and off-hand tool spindle configurations accepting 6-inch diameter wheels.

Installation Notes

This wheel is mounted and serviced by machinists, fabricators, or toolroom technicians following the grinder or tool manufacturer guidelines. Always power down and lock out the grinder before mounting or removing the wheel. Inspect the wheel for damage before each use and verify the grinder RPM rating does not exceed the maximum rated speed of the wheel. Follow applicable ANSI B7 grinding wheel safety standards when mounting abrasive wheels.
