3M 7100176544 Scotch-brite St-uw Unitized Wheel 6 in Ao

Product Description

The 3M 7100176544 is a Scotch-Brite ST-UW unitized abrasive wheel designed for deburring and surface finishing on demanding alloys including stainless steel and titanium. The unitized construction layers abrasive material throughout the wheel body, allowing it to cut and finish simultaneously while maintaining a cooler running temperature than many competing wheel types. At 6 inches in diameter with a 1/4 inch arbor, this wheel fits smaller bench grinders and portable equipment. It weighs 1.545 pounds and is built with aluminum oxide abrasive. Licensed trade fabricators, metalworkers, and maintenance professionals working on precision finishing applications are the primary users.

This wheel suits applications where narrow widths and small diameters are required for access to intricate shapes, contours, or tight geometries. It is well suited for finishing passes on fabricated stainless steel components, titanium parts, and other hard-to-finish alloys where conformability matters. The softer, more conformable structure compared to higher-density convolute wheels makes it a practical choice for contour blending and light deburring in fabrication shops, maintenance environments, and field service settings.

Key Features

• Unitized layered construction runs clockwise or counterclockwise without performance loss
• Resists loading and runs cool, extending usable wheel life
• Softer and more conformable than many higher-density wheel types, suitable for intricate contours
• Compact 6 inch diameter and 1/4 inch arbor size fits smaller bench-mounted and portable grinders
• Aluminum oxide abrasive rated for stainless steel and titanium finishing

Compatibility

Designed for use on bench grinders and portable equipment accepting a 1/4 inch arbor and accommodating a 6 inch diameter wheel.

Installation Notes

Mounting and operation of abrasive wheels should follow ANSI B11.9 and applicable OSHA standards for abrasive wheel machinery. Inspect the wheel for cracks or damage before mounting and ensure the spindle speed does not exceed the wheel's rated maximum RPM. Power down and lock out the grinder before mounting or removing the wheel. Use the correct flange and arbor hardware rated for the wheel size.
