Merit Abrasives 08834135341 Mounted Flap Wheel 320 Grit

Product Description

The MERIT ABRASIVES 08834135341 is a mounted flap wheel designed for precision surface finishing and deburring on metal workpieces. Built with a ceramic alumina abrasive on a cloth backing, this wheel delivers consistent stock removal and a uniform finish at an extra fine 320 grit. It measures 3 inches in diameter with a 1 inch face width and mounts via a 1/4 inch shank, making it compatible with standard die grinders and rotary tools. Rated to a maximum of 20,000 RPM, it suits controlled, high-speed finishing passes on tight contours and internal surfaces.

This mounted flap wheel is suited for metal fabrication, tool and die work, weld blending, and surface prep applications where an extra fine finish is required. It performs well in both production and maintenance environments. The 1/4 inch shank fits directly into most die grinders and flex-shaft machines without adapters, making it a practical choice for machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians working on ferrous and non-ferrous metals.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard mounted flap wheel replacement for die grinders and rotary tools accepting a 1/4 inch shank, suitable for use in metal finishing and surface preparation applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or fabricator familiar with rotary abrasive tooling. Ensure the die grinder or rotary tool is powered off and disconnected from the air or electrical supply before mounting the wheel. Confirm the tool spindle speed does not exceed the 20,000 RPM rated maximum before operation. Inspect the wheel for damage before each use and follow applicable ANSI B7 abrasive product safety standards.
