Forney Industries Inc 72727 Crimped Wire Wheel 2in X 1/4in

Product Description

The FORNEY INDUSTRIES INC 72727 is a stem-mounted crimped wire wheel designed for light to medium duty surface prep work in tight spaces. Measuring 2 inches in diameter and 1/4 inch in width, with a wire diameter of 0.012 inches, this wheel mounts via a 1/4 inch hex shank for use with standard 1/4 inch electric power drills or pneumatic drills. The crimped wire construction provides a coarse, flexible action suited for removing rust, scale, and paint from surfaces that are difficult to reach with larger abrasive tools. Sold in a package of 5.

This wire wheel is built for applications where access is limited — narrow holes, confined recesses, and hard-to-reach areas that a standard cup or bench wheel cannot service. It is commonly used in metal fabrication, maintenance, and repair work where surface cleaning must be done prior to welding, coating, or inspection. The stem-mount design allows quick chuck installation in any standard 1/4 inch drill, making it a practical addition to a field technician or shop technician's tool kit.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no tools beyond the drill itself — insert the hex shank into the drill chuck and tighten securely before use. Always wear appropriate eye protection and gloves when operating wire wheels, as wire bristles can shed during use. Inspect each wheel before use and discard any with bent, broken, or missing wires. Do not exceed the rated speed of the wheel or the drill.
