Value Collection 516033 Polishing Buffing Wheel 8in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 516033 is a hard-density, single-ply polishing wheel designed for bench grinder and buffing machine applications. Measuring 8 inches in diameter and 1/2 inch thick, this unmounted wheel mounts to standard 1/2 inch arbor spindles. It is used in metal finishing, surface preparation, and polishing operations where a firm buffing action is required. At 0.57 pounds, the wheel is lightweight enough for extended use on bench-mounted equipment. Machinists, fabricators, and finishing technicians are the primary users of this type of wheel.

This polishing wheel suits general-purpose buffing and polishing tasks on metal, plastic, and composite surfaces. The hard wheel density makes it appropriate for cut-and-color polishing stages where more aggressive surface contact is needed compared to softer buffing wheels. It is commonly used in job shops, maintenance facilities, and trade workshops that require a dedicated polishing station on a bench grinder or standalone buffing machine with a 1/2 inch arbor shaft.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit polishing wheel for bench grinders and buffing machines equipped with a 1/2 inch arbor spindle.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or finishing technicians using standard bench grinder tooling. Power down and lock out the grinder or buffing machine before mounting or removing any wheel. Verify that the machine spindle speed rating meets or exceeds the wheel speed rating before operation. Inspect the wheel for cracks or damage before each use and do not use a damaged wheel.
