Merit Abrasives 08834137312 Mounted Flap Wheel 120 Grit

Product Description

The MERIT ABRASIVES 08834137312 is a mounted flap wheel designed for precision surface finishing and blending on metal, wood, and composite materials. Built with aluminum oxide abrasive on a cloth backing, this flap wheel delivers consistent material removal at a fine 120 grit rating. The 1/4 inch shank mounts directly into die grinders, drill presses, and rotary tools, making it a compact and practical choice for technicians and fabricators working in tight or contoured areas. It is rated to 30,000 RPM, suitable for high-speed rotary tool applications where controlled finishing is required.

This mounted flap wheel is suited for light deburring, surface preparation, blending welds, and fine finishing passes on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. It is commonly used in fabrication shops, maintenance and repair environments, and light manufacturing settings. The coated aluminum oxide construction makes it effective on steel, aluminum, and similar materials where a fine, consistent finish is needed without aggressive stock removal.

Installation Notes

A licensed or experienced technician should verify that the tool spindle speed does not exceed the 30,000 RPM maximum rating of this flap wheel before use. Ensure the shank is fully seated and secured in the collet before operating. Always wear appropriate eye and face protection when operating mounted abrasive wheels. Inspect the wheel for damage before each use and remove from service if any deformation or separation is observed.
