Osborn 0001142700 Wheel Brush 3 in Crimped Carbon Steel

Product Description

The OSBORN 0001142700 is a 3-inch diameter wheel brush designed for deburring, cleaning, surface preparation, and finishing on metal workpieces. It mounts via a 5/8-inch arbor hole and features crimped carbon steel wire filaments up to 0.0099 inches in diameter. The crimped wire construction provides a consistent, flexible action that conforms to irregular surfaces without gouging. Rated to 20,000 RPM, this brush suits bench grinders, angle grinders, and arbor-mounted power tools. It is used by machinists, fabricators, maintenance technicians, and industrial tradespeople who need reliable surface conditioning performance.

This wheel brush is suited for ferrous metal applications including weld cleanup, rust and scale removal, and pre-paint surface prep. The 3/8-inch face width and 15/16-inch trim length allow good contact across flat and contoured workpiece surfaces. It is a single-unit item appropriate for production environments as well as shop maintenance use. No shank is included, so direct arbor mounting is required.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with power tool safety practices. Ensure the power tool is fully de-energized and unplugged before mounting or removing the brush. Verify the tool spindle speed does not exceed the 20,000 RPM rating of the brush before operation. Always use appropriate eye protection and guarding per applicable ANSI and OSHA standards when operating wire wheel brushes at speed.
