Merit Abrasives 08834131742 Mounted Flap Wheel 120 Grit

Product Description

The MERIT ABRASIVES 08834131742 is a mounted flap wheel designed for precision surface finishing, deburring, and blending on metal and other hard materials. It features a ceramic alumina abrasive at 120 grit, placing it in the fine grade category for controlled material removal and smooth surface results. The wheel measures 2 inches in diameter with a 1/2 inch face width and mounts via a 1/4 inch shank for use in standard die grinders and drill presses. With a maximum rating of 30,000 RPM, it is built for high-speed rotary tool applications. Fabricators, machinists, and metalworkers are the primary installers and users of this type of tooling.

This mounted flap wheel is suited for use in fabrication shops, maintenance environments, and light industrial settings where consistent surface finishing is required on contoured or hard-to-reach surfaces. The coated abrasive construction allows the flaps to conform slightly to the workpiece, making it effective on curved profiles, weld seams, and edge work. It is a single-piece unit packaged individually, appropriate for both shop stock and job-specific use.

Key Features

• Ceramic alumina abrasive material for durable, consistent cutting action
• 120 grit fine grade for surface blending and finishing without heavy stock removal
• 2 inch outer diameter with 1/2 inch face width for controlled contact area
• 1/4 inch shank diameter fits standard die grinders and rotary tools
• 30,000 RPM maximum rating supports high-speed tool operation
• Coated abrasive construction allows flaps to flex and conform to contoured surfaces

Compatibility

Designed for use with die grinders, drill presses, and rotary tools equipped with a 1/4 inch collet or chuck, where a shank-mounted flap wheel is required for surface finishing applications.

Installation Notes

This abrasive accessory is installed by trade professionals and machinists familiar with rotary abrasive tooling. Before mounting, confirm the tool spindle speed does not exceed the 30,000 RPM rating marked on the wheel. Secure the 1/4 inch shank fully into the collet and tighten according to the tool manufacturer's specifications. Always use appropriate eye protection and guarding when operating mounted abrasive wheels.
