Merit Abrasives 08834196503 Spiral Band 60 Grit

Product Description

The MERIT ABRASIVES 08834196503 is a coated abrasive spiral band designed for deburring, blending, and finishing operations on metal, wood, and composite surfaces. Built with aluminum oxide abrasive, this spiral band delivers consistent stock removal at 60 grit, which falls in the medium grade range. The band measures 1.5 inches in diameter by 1 inch wide and is rated for a maximum spindle speed of 12000 RPM. It is a standard consumable used by machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians working with die grinders and spindle sanders.

This spiral band is suited for interior bore finishing, contour blending, and edge deburring on ferrous and non-ferrous metals as well as plastics and hardwoods. The 60 grit medium grade makes it appropriate for intermediate material removal where a smoother surface is needed after rough grinding but before fine finishing passes. It is commonly used in shops, manufacturing facilities, and field maintenance environments where precise bore and surface conditioning is required.

Installation Notes

Spiral bands are installed by a technician or machinist onto a matching rubber expansion mandrel mounted in a die grinder or spindle sander. Confirm the mandrel diameter and band size match before installation. Do not exceed the 12000 RPM maximum rated speed. Inspect the band for tears or separation before each use and replace if the abrasive surface shows uneven wear or the spiral seam shows signs of lifting.
