3M 7100084726 Scotch-brite Exl Unitized Wheel 6 Inch

Product Description

The 3M 7100084726 is a Scotch-Brite EXL Unitized Wheel designed for smoothing, deburring, and surface finishing on metal alloys, plastics, and composites. Built with a layered, unitized silicon carbide construction, this 6-inch diameter wheel delivers consistent abrasive action across a range of densities and grades. The softer densities provide conformability for intricate or complex part geometries, while higher densities deliver aggressive cut and durability for heavier stock removal. Fabricators, machinists, and finishing technicians use this wheel with bench grinders, pedestal grinders, and automated robotic processing equipment.

This wheel suits general industrial and manufacturing finishing applications including edge deburring, surface blending, and pre-polish preparation on metal alloys such as stainless steel and aluminum, as well as many plastics and composites. The unitized construction supports both clockwise and counterclockwise rotation, making it adaptable to a wide range of machine setups. The wheel edge can be dressed to maintain a consistent cutting profile throughout its service life, reducing downtime and extending usable wheel life in production environments.

Key Features

• Layered, unitized silicon carbide construction operates in clockwise or counterclockwise rotation
• Conformable consistency keeps abrasive in contact with complex or irregular part shapes, including in robotic processing setups
• Available across a range of densities and grades, from soft and conformable to hard and aggressive
• Resists smearing for cleaner surface finishes with less pre-cleaning preparation required
• Minimizes heat buildup, reducing thermal impact on heat-sensitive base materials
• Wheel edge can be dressed for precise deburring, finishing, and polishing profiles

Compatibility

Designed for use with bench grinders, pedestal grinders, and robotic finishing equipment that accept 6-inch diameter unitized abrasive wheels. Suitable for finishing metal alloys, plastics, and composites.

Installation Notes

Mount this wheel on a compatible grinder spindle following the machine manufacturer's arbor size and speed rating requirements. Verify that the machine's maximum RPM does not exceed the wheel's rated speed before operation. Always power down and lock out the machine before mounting or changing wheels. Eye protection and appropriate PPE are required during operation in accordance with ANSI abrasive wheel safety standards.
