Merit Abrasives 08834181708 Cartridge Roll 3/8 in 80 Grit

Product Description

The MERIT ABRASIVES 08834181708 is a full taper cartridge roll designed for precision deburring, blending, and finishing in tight contours, slots, and irregular surfaces. Built with aluminum oxide abrasive at 80 grit, this roll delivers medium-grade cutting action suited for ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The full taper geometry allows the roll to reach into recessed areas where flat or cylindrical abrasives cannot. It mounts on a mandrel and is driven by a die grinder or rotary tool. Metalworkers, fabricators, and maintenance machinists are the primary installers and users of this type of abrasive consumable.

This cartridge roll is used in metal fabrication shops, maintenance and repair operations, and light manufacturing environments. Typical applications include weld blending, surface prep before coating, edge radiusing, and port work on castings. The 3/8 inch maximum diameter makes it appropriate for small-bore and narrow-groove work where a larger roll would not fit. It is sold individually but subject to a minimum order quantity of 100 units per order.

Key Features

• Full taper profile for access to contoured surfaces, slots, and recessed geometry
• Aluminum oxide abrasive for consistent cutting on steel, aluminum, and other metals
• 80 grit medium grade balances material removal with surface finish
• 3/8 inch maximum roll diameter fits narrow-bore and tight-clearance applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement consumable for use with standard mandrel-style cartridge roll holders in die grinders and rotary tools accepting rolls up to 3/8 inch diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists, fabricators, or maintenance technicians using a compatible mandrel secured in a die grinder or rotary tool. Ensure the tool is powered off and unplugged before mounting or removing the cartridge roll. Thread the roll fully onto the mandrel and confirm it is seated before operating. Always wear appropriate eye and hand protection when using abrasive products.
