Merit Abrasives 08834180288 Straight Cartridge Roll 60 Grit

Product Description

The MERIT ABRASIVES 08834180288 is a straight cartridge roll designed for precision deburring, blending, and finishing in tight contours and hard-to-reach areas. Built with an aluminum oxide abrasive grain at 60 grit, this medium-grade roll delivers consistent stock removal on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. At 1/2 inch in diameter, it mounts to a mandrel-driven rotary tool, die grinder, or drill press. Metal fabricators, machinists, and tool-and-die technicians use this roll for bore finishing, weld blending, and surface prep work where flat abrasives cannot reach.

This cartridge roll suits general-purpose metalworking applications in fabrication shops, maintenance environments, and production finishing lines. The 60-grit medium grade makes it a practical choice for initial surface conditioning and weld seam blending before moving to finer grit stages. It is sold individually and is well suited for applications requiring controlled, repeatable abrasive action inside cylindrical or contoured workpieces.

Key Features

• Aluminum oxide abrasive grain — durable and effective on steel, cast iron, and non-ferrous metals
• 60 grit medium grade for efficient stock removal and surface conditioning
• 1/2 inch diameter straight profile for access to bores, slots, and contoured surfaces
• Mandrel-compatible design for use with die grinders and rotary tools
• Consistent grain spacing supports uniform finish across the work surface

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement-grade straight cartridge roll compatible with standard mandrel setups used in die grinders, flexible shaft machines, and drill presses accepting 1/2 inch diameter cartridge rolls.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or metal fabricators using a compatible tapered or straight mandrel. Ensure the rotary tool or die grinder is powered off and unplugged before mounting or removing the roll. Match the mandrel diameter to the cartridge roll bore and tighten securely before operation. Always verify the tool's rated RPM does not exceed the abrasive roll's rated maximum speed before use.
