Merit Abrasives 08834137562 Mounted Flap Wheel 120 Grit

Product Description

The MERIT ABRASIVES 08834137562 is a mounted flap wheel designed for precision surface finishing, deburring, and blending on metal and other hard materials. It features an aluminum oxide coated abrasive on a cloth backing, rated at a fine 120 grit for controlled material removal and smooth surface prep. The wheel mounts via a 1/8-inch shank for use in die grinders, drill presses, and rotary tools, and is rated to a maximum of 35,000 RPM. At 0.75 inches in diameter with a 0.375-inch face width, it is well suited for tight spaces, contoured surfaces, and detail work in fabrication and finishing applications.

This mounted flap wheel is used in metal fabrication shops, maintenance and repair operations, and light manufacturing environments. It performs in applications where a small-diameter abrasive wheel is needed to reach recessed areas, weld seams, bores, or complex profiles. Machinists, fabricators, and tool and die workers commonly use this size for finishing work that larger wheels cannot access. It is sold individually and requires no interleaf material.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard consumable for use with die grinders, rotary tools, and drill press setups accepting a 1/8-inch shank mounted abrasive wheel.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by securing the 1/8-inch shank into the collet of the rotary tool or die grinder and tightening per the tool manufacturer's specifications. Always confirm the tool's rated RPM meets or exceeds the wheel's 35,000 RPM maximum before operation. Inspect the wheel for damage before each use and never operate a cracked or deformed flap wheel. Appropriate eye protection and guards should be used in accordance with ANSI B11 and applicable shop safety standards.
