At 3.5 inches in outside diameter and 1.5 inches wide, this medium-grade wheel carries a 60-grit aluminum oxide abrasive bonded to a cloth backing. It is rated for operation up to 30,000 RPM, making it suitable for use with high-speed die grinders and rotary tools. The 5\/8-inch center hole fits standard arbors used across metal fabrication, welding, and maintenance shops. Machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians are the primary installers and users of this part.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis flap wheel is well suited to light-to-medium stock removal and surface conditioning on curved or contoured workpieces where a rigid abrasive wheel would lose contact. It is commonly used in metal fabrication shops, welding operations, and general industrial maintenance for blending weld seams, cleaning casting flash, and smoothing edges on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The 60-grit medium grade provides a balance between material removal rate and surface finish quality, making it a practical choice for prep work ahead of coating or inspection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e60-grit aluminum oxide abrasive delivers medium-grade cutting action for weld blending and deburring\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCloth backing provides flexibility and durability during contouring operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e30,000 RPM maximum speed rating suits high-speed die grinders and rotary tools\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3.5-inch outside diameter with 1.5-inch width offers substantial contact area for surface conditioning\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/8-inch center hole fits standard arbors common in fabrication and maintenance equipment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUnmounted, no-interleaf design for straightforward arbor mounting without additional hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-mount replacement or standard-fitment flap wheel for die grinders and rotary tools accepting a 5\/8-inch arbor and rated for operation up to 30,000 RPM.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by machinists, fabricators, or maintenance technicians. Before mounting, confirm the spindle speed of the tool does not exceed the 30,000 RPM maximum rating of the wheel. Ensure the tool is fully powered down and unplugged before securing the wheel to the arbor. Inspect the wheel for damage before each use and replace if the abrasive cloth shows tearing, delamination, or loose flaps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbrasive Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbrasive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Coated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 60\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Medium\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCenter Hole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBacking Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cloth\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum RPM\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30,000\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInterleaf\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: MERIT ABRASIVES\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 08834122013\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51559701217586,"sku":"08834122013","price":42.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/483953ff014f84e8147252e27b842204.jpg?v=1786438542","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-abrasives-08834122013-flap-wheel-60-grit-3-5x1-5in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
