3M 7100176129 Flap Wheel 1.5 in Ao 60 Grit Coated

Product Description

The 3M 7100176129 is a coated abrasive flap wheel engineered for general-purpose material removal and surface finishing in trade and industrial applications. Built on an X-weight cotton cloth backing, it delivers a combination of durability and flexibility that reduces gouging and marring on workpiece surfaces. The aluminum oxide mineral abrasive cuts aggressively and maintains consistent performance throughout the wheel's life. At 1.5 inches in diameter and 60 grit, this wheel suits controlled grinding, polishing, sanding, and finishing tasks where surface quality matters as much as stock removal rate. Licensed tradespeople and fabricators install and operate this wheel on compatible power tools.

This flap wheel is suited for grinding, polishing, sanding, and finishing on metal and similar materials in both shop and field environments. The individually-mounted abrasive flaps continuously lap the workpiece surface, helping achieve fine finishes even as the wheel wears. It is available for use with Type 83 (T83) or Type 84 (T84) mounting systems, giving it broad compatibility across common rotary tool setups used in fabrication, maintenance, and repair work. Minimum order quantity is 10 units per purchase.
