Merit Abrasives 08834137511 Mounted Flap Wheel 80 Grit

Product Description

The MERIT ABRASIVES 08834137511 is a mounted flap wheel designed for precision surface finishing, blending, and deburring on metal and other hard materials. It features an aluminum oxide coated abrasive cloth at 80 grit, placing it in the medium grade category. The wheel measures 1-3/16 inches in diameter with a 3/8 inch face width and mounts via a 1/8 inch shank for use in die grinders, drill presses, and rotary tools. Rated to a maximum of 30,000 RPM, it delivers consistent stock removal and surface conditioning in tight-access areas where bench grinders and larger wheels cannot reach.

This mounted flap wheel is suited for use by machinists, fabricators, pipefitters, and metalworkers performing weld blending, edge finishing, or surface prep on ferrous and non-ferrous workpieces. The small diameter and shank-mount configuration make it effective inside bores, contoured surfaces, and recessed areas. It is appropriate for both shop and field use wherever a rotary tool or die grinder is the instrument of choice.
