Merit Abrasives 08834124005 Flap Wheel 120 Grit 10x1 in

Product Description

The MERIT ABRASIVES 08834124005 is a 10-inch diameter unmounted flap wheel designed for surface finishing and blending on metal, wood, and composite materials. The wheel uses aluminum oxide abrasive on a cloth backing, rated at 120 grit for fine-grade material removal. At 1 inch face width and a 1-3/4 inch center hole, it mounts to standard arbors and fits a range of bench grinders and pedestal machines. Maximum operating speed is 4,500 RPM. Metalworkers, fabricators, and finishing trades use this wheel for deburring, blending welds, and preparing surfaces before coating or inspection.

This flap wheel suits light to moderate stock removal and finishing passes on inside diameters, curved surfaces, and contoured workpieces. The coated aluminum oxide construction holds up through extended runs without loading quickly, making it practical for production environments and job-shop use alike. The 1-3/4 inch center hole accommodates common arbor sizes found on bench-mounted equipment. No interleaf material is included in this configuration.
