Dico 7000195 Spiral Sewn Buffing Wheel 6in Coarse

Product Description

The DICO 7000195 is an unmounted spiral sewn buffing wheel designed for coarse-grade polishing and surface preparation on metal, plastic, and similar materials. The wheel measures 6 inches in diameter and 1/2 inch thick, with a 1/2 inch arbor hole that accepts the included adapter flange for mounting on bench grinders, lathes, or compatible rotary equipment. The spiral sewn construction stiffens the cotton layers, making this wheel well suited for aggressive cutting, deburring, and initial polishing passes where a firm buffing action is required. Machinists, metalworkers, and maintenance technicians are the primary users of this type of wheel.

This buffing wheel is used in shop environments for metal fabrication, equipment maintenance, and surface finishing work. Its coarse grade rating makes it appropriate for the first stage of a multi-step polishing process, removing oxidation, scale, and surface irregularities before finer finishing wheels are applied. The included 1/2 inch adapter flange broadens its compatibility with common bench-mounted and pedestal-mounted polishing machines.

Key Features

• Spiral sewn construction provides a firm, coarse-grade buffing action for aggressive material removal
• 6 inch diameter suits standard bench grinder and polishing arbor setups
• 1/2 inch arbor hole with included adapter flange for flexible mounting
• 1/2 inch wheel thickness delivers consistent contact across the work surface
• Unmounted design allows direct installation on user-supplied arbor or spindle equipment

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit buffing wheel for bench grinders and polishing machines that accept a 6 inch diameter, 1/2 inch arbor buffing wheel. Includes a 1/2 inch adapter flange as noted in the product specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or maintenance technician familiar with rotary abrasive tooling. Power down and lock out the grinder or polishing machine before mounting or removing buffing wheels. Ensure the arbor nut and flange are properly tightened before operating the machine, and verify the equipment spindle speed rating is compatible with the wheel size. Always wear appropriate eye protection and follow applicable ANSI safety standards for abrasive wheel use.
