Value Collection 1515058350 Knotted Brass Wheel Brush 6 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 1515058350 is a knotted brass wire wheel brush designed for aggressive surface preparation, deburring, and cleaning on metal workpieces. The 6-inch outside diameter and knotted wire construction deliver consistent cutting action across weld scale, rust, and mill scale removal tasks. Rated to 9,000 RPM, this brush mounts via a 5/8-11 threaded arbor hole to bench grinders and angle grinders equipped with a compatible spindle. The brass fill material makes it suitable for use on softer metals and applications where ferrous contamination from steel wire must be avoided. A licensed tradesperson or machinist typically selects this brush for metalworking, welding prep, and fabrication workflows.

This wheel brush is used in industrial, fabrication, and maintenance environments where surface conditioning of metal parts is required. The knotted wire configuration applies more aggressive contact pressure than crimped wire alternatives, making it well suited for heavier scale and oxidation removal. At a 5/8-inch face width and 1-1/4 inch trim length, the brush profile works on both flat stock and contoured workpieces. It is commonly installed on bench grinders in machine shops, welding bays, and MRO facilities.

Key Features

• Knotted brass wire construction for aggressive cutting action with reduced ferrous contamination risk
• 6-inch outside diameter for broad surface coverage on bench or angle grinder applications
• 9,000 RPM maximum speed rating for use with standard bench grinders
• 5/8-11 threaded arbor hole for direct spindle mounting — no separate shank required
• 0.020 to 0.030 inch filament wire diameter range balances stiffness and surface reach
• 5/8-inch face width and 1-1/4 inch trim length suit both flat and contoured workpiece profiles

Compatibility

Designed to mount on bench grinders and grinder spindles with a 5/8-11 threaded arbor. Verify that the grinder's rated spindle speed meets or exceeds the 9,000 RPM maximum rating of this brush before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists, fabricators, or maintenance technicians familiar with bench grinder safety practices. Power down and lock out the grinder before mounting or removing the brush. Confirm the arbor thread direction matches the spindle rotation to prevent unintentional loosening during operation. Always operate within the 9,000 RPM maximum speed rating and use appropriate eye and face protection per ANSI B7.1 safety standards for abrasive wheel equipment.
