Metabo 623488000 Flap Wheel 180 Grit 4 in Aluminum Oxide

Product Description

The METABO 623488000 is a 4-inch unmounted non-woven flap wheel designed for surface conditioning, blending, and finishing across a range of materials. Built with aluminum oxide abrasive at 180 grit, it delivers consistent coarse-grade cutting action suited for deburring, light stock removal, and surface prep work. The non-woven construction allows the wheel to conform to irregular surfaces while maintaining an even finish. With a 5/8-inch center hole and a rated maximum speed of 5600 RPM, this wheel mounts to compatible spindle arbors and fits standard bench or pedestal grinder setups used by fabricators, machinists, and metal finishing professionals.

This flap wheel is intended for use on non-ferrous metals, steel, and wood surfaces. It performs well in production and job-shop environments where consistent surface finish is required before coating, welding, or final assembly. The coarse 180-grit aluminum oxide construction handles light-to-moderate material removal without loading up quickly on softer metals or wood substrates. It is sold and ships individually as a single unit.

Compatibility

Designed for use on spindle-mount grinders and finishing equipment accepting a 5/8-inch arbor hole. Suitable for non-ferrous metal, steel, and wood material applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified grinding or fabrication personnel familiar with abrasive wheel safety. Always power down and disconnect the machine before mounting or removing the wheel. Verify that the machine spindle speed does not exceed the 5600 RPM maximum rating marked on the wheel. Follow ANSI B7.1 safety requirements for the use, care, and protection of abrasive wheels during mounting and operation.
