Merit Abrasives 08834137512 Mounted Flap Wheel 120 Grit

Product Description

The MERIT ABRASIVES 08834137512 is a mounted flap wheel designed for precision surface finishing, blending, and deburring on metal and other hard materials. Built with aluminum oxide abrasive on a cloth backing, this coated flap wheel delivers consistent stock removal at a fine 120-grit grade. It measures 1-3/16 inches in outside diameter with a 3/8-inch face width, and mounts via a 1/8-inch shank for use in die grinders, rotary tools, and similar handheld or bench-mounted power tools. The wheel is rated for a maximum of 30,000 RPM, making it suitable for high-speed finishing work in tight or contoured areas where larger grinding tools cannot reach.

This mounted flap wheel is suited for use by machinists, toolmakers, metal fabricators, and maintenance technicians working in both shop and field environments. It is commonly used on interior bores, slots, and curved surfaces where controlled, even abrasion is required. The fine 120-grit cut makes it appropriate for finish passes and light blending rather than aggressive material removal. Typical applications include weld blending, surface preparation before coating, and deburring precision components.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard replacement mounted flap wheel for use with 1/8-inch collet die grinders, rotary tools, and similar high-speed rotary equipment commonly used in metal fabrication and finishing applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by trade professionals or experienced machinists familiar with rotary abrasive tooling. Before mounting, confirm the tool collet or chuck accepts a 1/8-inch shank and that the tool is rated to operate at or below 30,000 RPM. Always power down and unplug or de-energize the rotary tool before inserting or removing the wheel. Inspect the flap wheel for damage before each use and never exceed the rated maximum RPM.
