Merit Abrasives 08834137551 Mounted Flap Wheel 80 Grit

Product Description

The MERIT ABRASIVES 08834137551 is a mounted flap wheel designed for precision surface finishing, deburring, and blending in tight or contoured areas. Built with aluminum oxide abrasive on a cloth backing, this medium-grade wheel delivers consistent stock removal at 80 grit. The 1/8 inch shank mounts directly into a die grinder or rotary tool, making it a practical choice for machinists, fabricators, and tool-and-die technicians working on interior bores, slots, and irregular surfaces. Rated to a maximum of 35,000 RPM, it is suited for high-speed rotary applications where control and abrasive longevity matter.

This mounted flap wheel is used in metalworking and fabrication environments for finishing small-diameter bores, contoured workpieces, and hard-to-reach surfaces that flat abrasives cannot address. It is appropriate for both bench-mounted rotary tools and handheld die grinders in production and maintenance settings. The 0.75 inch diameter and 3/16 inch face width make it well matched for fine detail work on ferrous and non-ferrous metals.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by inserting the 1/8 inch shank into the collet of a compatible die grinder or rotary tool and tightening securely before operation. Always verify the tool's rated RPM meets or exceeds the 35,000 RPM maximum before mounting. Disconnect the tool from its power source before installing or removing the wheel. Do not exceed the rated maximum RPM, and inspect the wheel for damage before each use.
