Merit Abrasives 69957339706 Mounted Flap Wheel 60 Grit

Product Description

The MERIT ABRASIVES 69957339706 is a mounted flap wheel designed for precision grinding, blending, and finishing on metal surfaces. It runs on a 1/4-inch shank and spins at up to 25,000 RPM, making it compatible with standard die grinders and rotary tools. The 2-inch diameter and 1-inch face width deliver consistent surface contact across contoured and flat workpieces. The abrasive material is ceramic alumina bonded to an X-weight cloth backing, which provides aggressive stock removal while maintaining wheel integrity under heat and pressure. This wheel is sold individually and carries a minimum order quantity of 10 units.

This mounted flap wheel is suited for metalworking applications including weld blending, deburring, and surface preparation on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The 60-grit medium grade makes it a practical choice for moderate material removal followed by a refined surface finish. Typical use cases include fabrication shops, maintenance and repair operations, and tool-and-die work where a die grinder or high-speed rotary tool is used to access tight areas or contoured profiles.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by inserting the 1/4-inch shank into the collet of a die grinder or rotary tool and tightening securely before operation. Ensure the tool's rated RPM meets or exceeds 25,000 RPM before mounting this wheel. Always power down and disconnect the tool from its air or electrical supply before changing abrasive accessories. Wear appropriate eye and face protection during operation, and inspect the wheel for damage before each use.
