The wheel measures 8 inches in outside diameter by 2 inches in width, with a 3-inch center hole for mounting on compatible arbors and spindles. Rated to a maximum of 3,200 RPM, it carries a medium grade abrasive and a flap density rating of 5, delivering consistent scratch patterns and controlled material removal. This type of wheel is a standard tool for fabrication shops and maintenance operations requiring repeatable surface conditioning without excessive stock removal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNonwoven flap wheels in this size class are commonly used in industrial metal fabrication, weld blending, and surface preparation applications. They are well-suited for working on flat or contoured workpieces where a uniform finish is required before coating, plating, or further processing. The unmounted design requires a separate arbor or spindle fixture and is typically run on bench-mounted or pedestal grinding equipment, as well as compatible stationary finishing machines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAluminum oxide abrasive material for consistent cutting action on metal surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNonwoven construction provides controlled flexibility and even scratch pattern\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMedium grade for general-purpose surface blending and light deburring\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8-inch outside diameter with 3-inch center hole fits standard industrial arbors\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3,200 maximum RPM rating for safe operation on compatible equipment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlap density of 5 for balanced abrasive contact across the workpiece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use as an unmounted flap wheel on stationary finishing equipment fitted with a compatible arbor or spindle sized to accept a 3-inch center hole.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by qualified personnel familiar with abrasive wheel mounting procedures. Ensure all power to the equipment is off and locked out before mounting or removing the wheel. Verify that the spindle speed of the equipment does not exceed the 3,200 RPM maximum rating stamped on or associated with this wheel. Always inspect the wheel for damage before use and confirm the arbor and flanges are properly sized and torqued according to the equipment manufacturer guidelines and applicable ANSI B7 safety standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbrasive Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbrasive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Non-Woven\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Medium\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCenter Hole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum RPM\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3,200 RPM\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlap Density\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInterleaf\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.98 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3M Manufacturer Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5AMED\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3M\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7100097932\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"3M","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51691746361650,"sku":"7100097932","price":198.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/48886bffb4c85687cc5016fda36efa58_e9f5b797-0631-457b-9e87-80989530f940.jpg?v=1788289189","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/3m-7100097932-flap-wheel-8x2-inch-aluminum-oxide-medium","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
