Merit Abrasives 08834137541 Mounted Flap Wheel 80 Grit

Product Description

The MERIT ABRASIVES 08834137541 is a shank-mounted flap wheel designed for light to medium surface finishing, deburring, and blending on metal and other materials. Built with an aluminum oxide coated abrasive on a cloth backing, this wheel delivers consistent stock removal and a smooth surface finish. It runs at up to 37,000 RPM, making it suitable for use with high-speed rotary tools and die grinders. At 0.625 inches in diameter with a 0.75 inch face width and an 80 grit medium grade cut, it handles contoured surfaces and tight areas where flat abrasives cannot reach.

This mounted flap wheel is used in fabrication shops, maintenance facilities, and production environments where precision deburring and surface conditioning are required. The 0.125 inch shank mounts directly into standard die grinders, rotary tools, and flexible shaft machines. It is well suited for finishing interior bores, slots, and curved profiles in steel, aluminum, and similar workpiece materials where a coated abrasive wheel provides better conformability than solid grinding media.

Key Features

• Aluminum oxide coated abrasive for consistent cut and finish on ferrous and non-ferrous metals
• Cloth backing provides flexibility for contoured and irregular surface contact
• 80 grit medium grade balances material removal with surface finish quality
• 37,000 maximum RPM rating for use with high-speed die grinders and rotary tools
• 0.125 inch shank mounts to standard collets without adapters
• Compact 0.625 inch diameter accesses tight geometries and interior profiles

Compatibility

Designed as a shank-mounted abrasive flap wheel compatible with die grinders, rotary tools, and flexible shaft machines accepting a 0.125 inch shank collet.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by trade machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians. Confirm the tool spindle speed does not exceed the 37,000 RPM maximum rating of this wheel before operation. Power down and unplug or lockout the rotary tool before mounting or removing the shank. Inspect the flap wheel for damage prior to each use and discard if abrasive segments are torn or the shank is bent.
