Merit Abrasives 08834181714 Cartridge Roll 3/8 in Medium 60 Grit

Product Description

The MERIT ABRASIVES 08834181714 is a full taper cartridge roll designed for precision grinding, blending, and finishing in tight contours, holes, and recessed areas. Built with aluminum oxide abrasive at 60 grit, this roll delivers medium-grade cutting action suited for material removal and surface prep on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The full taper geometry allows the roll to conform to curved and irregular surfaces more effectively than straight-body rolls. At 3/8 inch maximum diameter, it fits standard mandrels used in die grinders and rotary tools. Abrasives technicians and metal fabricators rely on this format for deburring drilled holes, cleaning weld seams, and blending in areas where larger tooling cannot reach.

This cartridge roll is appropriate for both production shop and maintenance-repair applications. Typical use cases include internal diameter blending, port finishing, and edge deburring on steel, aluminum, and cast iron components. The aluminum oxide grain is a general-purpose abrasive that performs consistently across a wide range of base materials. It is sold individually per unit, with a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces, making it well suited for production environments that cycle through abrasive consumables at volume.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement cartridge roll for use with compatible mandrels sized for 3/8 inch maximum diameter rolls in rotary die grinders and similar tooling.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by threading the cartridge roll onto a matching tapered or straight mandrel and securing it per the mandrel manufacturer's instructions. Ensure the spindle speed of the grinder does not exceed the maximum RPM rating of the roll. Operators should wear appropriate eye protection and gloves when mounting or changing abrasive rolls. Inspect the roll for damage before each use and replace immediately if fraying or core separation is observed.
