3M 7100062983 Scotch-brite Exl Pro Deburring Wheel 8 in

Product Description

The 3M 7100062983 Scotch-Brite EXL PRO is a convolute deburring wheel built for off-hand grinding and finishing operations in metalworking and fabrication environments. Measuring 8 inches in diameter and 2.5 inches wide, this wheel uses a non-woven abrasive construction combined with a unique resin system to remove burrs, radius sharp edges, and blend surfaces without generating excessive heat. The design requires less operator pressure than standard EXL wheels while delivering faster cut rates, making it well-suited for production and maintenance applications handled by machinists, fabricators, and tool-and-die technicians.

This deburring wheel is intended for off-hand operations on bench grinders and pedestal grinders. It performs on a range of metal substrates where burr removal and edge conditioning are required. The convolute construction maintains consistent wheel geometry throughout the life of the wheel, ensuring repeatable results across extended use. The extended service life compared to the original EXL wheel reduces wheel change frequency in high-volume deburring workflows.

Key Features

• Convolute construction maintains smooth, consistent performance throughout wheel life
• Requires less operator pressure than standard EXL wheels for faster cutting action
• Extended wheel life compared to original EXL design, reducing replacement frequency
• Unique resin system minimizes smearing, reducing post-operation surface cleaning time
• Minimizes heat buildup to reduce risk of discoloration and warping on heat-sensitive materials
• 8 inch diameter by 2.5 inch width suits standard bench and pedestal grinder configurations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and upgrade for convolute deburring wheel applications on bench grinders and pedestal grinders requiring an 8 inch diameter wheel.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified operator following the grinder manufacturer's mounting instructions and all applicable ANSI B11 and OSHA abrasive wheel safety standards. Always inspect the wheel for damage before mounting and ensure the spindle speed rating of the grinder does not exceed the maximum RPM rating of the wheel. Power down and lock out the grinder before changing wheels. Use correct flanges and blotters as specified by the manufacturer.
