Product Description

The Forney Industries 71798 is a 5-piece cutting wheel kit designed for high-speed rotary tool applications. The kit centers on 3-inch cutting wheels in two thicknesses and includes a mandrel to cover both 1/4-inch and 3/8-inch arbor configurations. It is suited for trades and mechanical work where precise, fast cuts in metal, plastic, or similar materials are required. The included mandrel kit eliminates the need to source adapters separately, making this a ready-to-use solution for technicians and service pros who rely on rotary tools in the field or at the bench.
