Value Collection 516011 Polishing Buffing Wheel 4in Medium

Product Description

The Value Collection 516011 is an unmounted polishing buffing wheel designed for surface finishing and polishing operations on metals and similar materials. Measuring 4 inches in diameter and 1 inch thick with a 1/2 inch arbor hole, this single-ply wheel features medium density construction that balances cut rate and surface finish. It mounts directly to bench grinders, polishing lathes, or arbor-equipped power tools. Machinists, metalworkers, fabricators, and maintenance technicians use wheels like this for deburring, light polishing, and surface prep tasks on a range of workpieces. The wheel weighs approximately 0.21 pounds, making it easy to handle and swap between setups.

This buffing wheel is suited for use in machine shops, fabrication facilities, maintenance departments, and trade workshops where consistent surface finishing is required. It is appropriate for polishing ferrous and non-ferrous metals, and works well in production and bench-top polishing applications where a medium-density wheel provides the right balance of aggressiveness and finish quality.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or tradesperson familiar with rotating abrasive and buffing wheel safety. Power down and lock out the tool before mounting or removing the wheel. Ensure the arbor nut is tightened securely and that the wheel is rated for the RPM of the machine being used before operating. Always inspect the wheel for damage before each use and follow applicable ANSI safety standards for abrasive and buffing wheel operation.
