Dico 7000259 Cushion Sewn Buffing Wheel 8in X 3/4in

Product Description

The DICO 7000259 is an unmounted cushion sewn buffing wheel designed for surface finishing, polishing, and light cutting applications on metal, wood, and composite materials. At 8 inches in diameter and 3/4 inches thick with a medium density construction, this wheel delivers consistent buffing pressure across the work surface. The cushion sewn design allows the wheel to conform slightly to contoured surfaces while maintaining enough structure for controlled material removal. It mounts via a 1/2 inches arbor hole and ships with a 1/2 inches adapter flange included. Machinists, fabricators, and finishing technicians are the primary installers and operators.

This buffing wheel suits bench grinders and stationary polishing machines used in metal fabrication shops, woodworking facilities, and general maintenance environments. Its medium density rating makes it appropriate for intermediate polishing stages — after initial grinding but before final high-gloss finishing. The 8 inches diameter fits standard bench grinder wheel guards commonly found in industrial and light manufacturing settings.

Key Features

• Cushion sewn construction provides moderate conformability for curved or irregular workpieces
• Medium density rating balances cutting action and surface finish quality
• 8 inches diameter fits standard bench grinder arbor configurations
• 1/2 inches arbor hole with included 1/2 inches adapter flange for direct mounting
• 3/4 inches wheel thickness offers stable, even contact across the buffing face

Compatibility

Designed for use on bench grinders and polishing machines equipped with a 1/2 inches arbor. The included adapter flange supports direct mounting without additional hardware on compatible machines.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with bench grinder safety practices. Disconnect and lock out power to the grinder before mounting or removing any wheel. Confirm the machine spindle speed rating meets or exceeds the wheel speed rating before operation. Inspect the wheel for damage before each use and never operate a cracked or delaminated buffing wheel.
