Merit Abrasives 08834137472 Mounted Flap Wheel 120 Grit

Product Description

The MERIT ABRASIVES 08834137472 is a mounted flap wheel designed for precision grinding, blending, and finishing on small or hard-to-reach surfaces. It measures 3/8 inch in diameter with a 3/8 inch face width and features a 1/8 inch shank for use in die grinders, rotary tools, and similar air or electric spindle tools. The abrasive material is aluminum oxide with a cloth backing at 120 grit, placing it in the fine grade range. Rated to a maximum of 40,000 RPM, this wheel is built for high-speed controlled material removal and surface prep work in metal fabrication, toolroom, and maintenance applications.

This mounted flap wheel is suited for deburring, light stock removal, and surface conditioning on internal bores, contoured edges, and confined areas where larger wheels cannot reach. It is a common tool in metalworking shops, maintenance facilities, and fabrication environments. The coated aluminum oxide abrasive makes it effective on ferrous metals, aluminum, and general-purpose workpiece materials. Each package contains one wheel, allowing individual replacement as abrasives wear.

Installation Notes

Installation and use should be performed by personnel familiar with rotary abrasive tooling and applicable safety standards. Always verify that the tool spindle speed does not exceed the 40,000 RPM maximum rating before operating. Secure the shank fully in the collet and confirm the collet is tightened before powering the tool. Wear appropriate eye protection and follow ANSI B11 or equivalent abrasive safety guidelines during use.
