Osborn 0002675600 Knotted Wheel Brush 3 Inch Stainless

Product Description

The OSBORN 0002675600 is a knotted wheel brush designed for aggressive surface preparation, weld cleaning, rust and scale removal, and deburring on metal workpieces. Mounted via a 3/8-inch arbor hole, it spins at a maximum of 25,000 RPM, making it well-suited for use with die grinders and bench grinders operating in that speed range. The brush fill is stainless steel wire with a filament diameter in the 0.0100 to 0.0199-inch range, delivering consistent bite and durability on ferrous and non-ferrous surfaces. The 3-inch outside diameter and 5/8-inch trim length provide controlled contact and predictable wear characteristics. No shank is included; a compatible arbor is required for installation.

This wheel brush is commonly used by fabricators, welders, pipefitters, HVAC technicians, and maintenance trades for cleaning pipe ends, tube joints, and sheet metal surfaces prior to brazing, welding, or coating. The knotted wire configuration is preferred when the application demands cutting action rather than light finishing. It is appropriate for both shop bench work and portable angle or die grinder use wherever the tool RPM rating meets or exceeds the 25,000 RPM maximum rating of this brush.

Key Features

• Knotted stainless steel wire fill for aggressive cleaning and scale removal
• 3-inch outside diameter with 3/8-inch face width for focused contact area
• 25,000 RPM maximum speed rating compatible with high-speed die grinders

Compatibility

Designed for use with die grinders, bench grinders, or rotary tools fitted with a 3/8-inch arbor and rated to operate at or below 25,000 RPM. Confirm tool RPM rating before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified tradesperson familiar with rotary abrasive tooling. Always power down and disconnect the grinder before mounting or removing the brush. Verify the tool spindle speed does not exceed the 25,000 RPM maximum rating marked on this brush — operating above rated speed is a safety hazard. Eye protection and appropriate PPE are required during operation per standard shop safety practice.
