It measures 2.5 inches in diameter with a 0.5 inch face width, making it well suited for contoured surfaces, grooves, and hard-to-reach areas where flat abrasives cannot conform. The wheel uses aluminum oxide coated cloth flaps at 180 grit, placing it in the very fine grade range. This combination delivers consistent scratch patterns and smooth finishes during light stock removal or final prep work. It is rated to a maximum of 20,000 RPM. Machinists, fabricators, and tool and die professionals are the typical end users.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis flap wheel is used in die grinder applications where a threaded spindle mount is required. It is appropriate for finish grinding, weld blending, and surface conditioning on ferrous metals, stainless steel, and aluminum in both shop and field environments. The 180 grit very fine grade makes it a finishing-stage tool rather than a heavy material removal wheel. It is commonly used in fabrication shops, maintenance facilities, and production grinding operations where consistent surface quality is critical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e180 grit aluminum oxide coated cloth flaps for very fine finishing and surface conditioning\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2.5 inch diameter with 0.5 inch face width for work in contoured areas and grooves\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded mount for secure attachment to die grinders and rotary tools\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e20,000 RPM maximum speed rating for high-speed tool compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCloth backing material provides flexibility and conformability across irregular surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo interleaf construction for direct flap contact with the workpiece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use mounted flap wheel for die grinders and rotary tools fitted with a threaded spindle mount accepting a 2.5 inch diameter wheel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by threading the wheel directly onto a compatible die grinder spindle. Verify the tool spindle speed does not exceed the 20,000 RPM maximum before operation. Always ensure the wheel is fully seated and secured before starting the tool. Wear appropriate eye protection and follow applicable ANSI B7 safety standards for abrasive wheel use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFace Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 180\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Very Fine\u003c\/li\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\u003eBacking Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cloth\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMount Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Threaded\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum RPM\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20,000\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: 0.25 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: 08834134018\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51559443333426,"sku":"08834134018","price":19.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/56f4d64bfa9276230ad9a57b193928dc.jpg?v=1786432625","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-abrasives-08834134018-mounted-flap-wheel-180-grit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
