3M 7100159559 Scotch-brite Unitized Wheel 1 in 1/8 in Arbor

Product Description

The 3M 7100159559 is a Scotch-Brite Cut and Polish Unitized Wheel designed for aggressive deburring, blending, and finishing on harder metals. The tightly layered, non-woven construction delivers controlled abrasive action without undercutting or gouging the workpiece. It operates in both clockwise and counterclockwise directions, making it well suited for portable tools and tight-access applications. Available in medium to hard densities, this wheel is a practical starting point for jobs that require small diameters and narrow widths. Metalworkers and fabricators handling stainless steel, carbon steel, and high nickel alloys will find this wheel capable of producing a consistent, bright finish throughout its full service life.

This unitized wheel is intended for use in fabrication, maintenance, and metal finishing applications where portability and precise abrasive control are required. Its compact 1 inch diameter and 1/8 inch arbor make it compatible with small rotary tools and die grinders commonly used on pipe, tube, sheet metal, and structural components. It is particularly effective on harder metals where conventional abrasive wheels may load or glaze prematurely. The flexible, non-woven Scotch-Brite material resists loading and wears at a uniform rate, maintaining consistent cutting action from first use to the end of the wheel life.

Key Features

• Tightly layered unitized construction operates in clockwise or counterclockwise directions
• Non-woven, flexible design provides controlled abrasive action that prevents undercutting and gouging
• High concentration of abrasive mineral delivers fast cutting and a bright, consistent finish throughout wheel life
• Scotch-Brite material resists loading and wears uniformly for continuous cutting performance
• Small 1 inch diameter and narrow width suit portable tool applications and tight-clearance work
• Effective on stainless steel, carbon steel, and high nickel alloys

Compatibility

Designed for use with rotary tools and die grinders accepting a 1/8 inch arbor. Suitable for deburring, blending, and finishing operations on harder metals including stainless steel, carbon steel, and high nickel alloys.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by metalworkers and fabricators using standard rotary or die grinder tooling. Ensure the tool is powered off and unplugged before mounting or removing the wheel. Verify that the tool spindle speed does not exceed the maximum rated speed for the wheel before operation. Wear appropriate eye and face protection during use, as non-woven abrasive wheels can shed material at operating speed.
