Dico 7000025 Spiral Sewn Buffing Wheel 10 in Coarse

Product Description

The DICO 7000025 is an unmounted spiral sewn buffing wheel designed for coarse-grade surface preparation and polishing on metal, wood, and composite materials. At 10 inches in diameter and 1/2 inch thick, it delivers broad surface contact for rapid cutting and aggressive buffing action. The spiral sewn construction locks the cloth layers together, giving the wheel firmness and durability through extended use. It mounts via a 1/2 inch arbor hole and includes a 1/2 inch adapter flange, making it ready to fit bench grinders, polishing motors, and buffing lathes without additional hardware. Machinists, fabricators, and finishing technicians use this wheel for initial cutting stages before moving to finer grades.

This buffing wheel is suited for shop and field applications where coarse material removal or surface conditioning is required before final finishing passes. It is commonly used on stationary bench grinders and standalone buffing machines in metal fabrication shops, automotive restoration bays, and woodworking operations. The included adapter flange extends its compatibility with standard 1/2 inch arbor spindles found on most bench-mounted buffing units. It is sold individually and is appropriate wherever a high-contact, firm buffing wheel is needed at the cutting or initial polish stage.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician following the machine manufacturer's spindle speed and wheel size specifications. Power down and lock out the buffing machine before mounting or removing the wheel. Secure the arbor nut to manufacturer-specified tightness using appropriate wrenches — do not overtighten, as this can distort the wheel hub. Inspect the wheel for damage before each use and never exceed the maximum RPM rating for the wheel diameter in use.
