Osborn 0002202600 Crimped Wire Wheel Brush 8 Inches

Product Description

The OSBORN 0002202600 is a crimped wire wheel brush designed for deburring, cleaning, and surface preparation on metal and other hard materials. Built around Osborn Tufwire construction, this brush combines a wider 1.5-inch face width with crimped steel wire filaments to deliver fast, consistent material removal on production lines and general maintenance applications. The 8-inch outside diameter and arbor hole mount make it compatible with standard bench grinders and arbor-driven power tools. Wire filament diameter falls in the 0.0100 to 0.0199 inch range, providing a balance of aggressiveness and surface finish control. Maximum rated speed is 4,500 RPM. At 3.25 pounds, the brush is substantial enough for sustained industrial use.

This wheel brush is suited for both production shop environments and maintenance tasks where consistent wire contact across a wide face is required. Typical applications include weld spatter removal, rust and scale stripping, paint removal, and general surface conditioning on ferrous metals. The crimped wire configuration allows the filaments to flex and conform to irregular surfaces while maintaining consistent cutting action. It installs on arbor-driven equipment via a round arbor hole with a 2-inch bore and does not include a shank adapter.

Key Features

• Crimped steel wire fill for flexible, high-contact brushing action on uneven surfaces
• Tufwire construction anchors filaments securely to reduce wire loss during operation
• 1.5-inch face width provides broader coverage per pass compared to standard wheel brushes
• Rated to 4,500 RPM for use on bench grinders and arbor-driven power tools
• Round 2-inch arbor hole mount with no shank required
• Filament wire diameter range of 0.0100 to 0.0199 inches for controlled aggression

Compatibility

Designed for arbor hole mount installations with a 2-inch round bore, suitable for bench grinders and stationary arbor-driven power tools that accept 8-inch diameter wire wheel brushes rated at or below 4,500 RPM.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified maintenance or fabrication personnel familiar with rotating wire brush safety. Always power down and de-energize the grinder or arbor tool and confirm it has come to a complete stop before mounting or removing the brush. Verify that the machine's rated RPM does not exceed the brush's 4,500 RPM maximum before operation. Operators should wear appropriate eye protection and a face shield, as wire bristle ejection is a known hazard with wheel brushes under load.
