Value Collection 516041 Polishing Buffing Wheel 8in X 2in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 516041 is a hard-density unmounted polishing wheel designed for bench grinder and arbor-mounted buffing applications. At 8 inches in diameter and 2 inches thick with a 1/2-inch arbor hole, this single-ply wheel mounts directly to standard buffing equipment without additional hardware. It is suited for surface finishing, light material removal, and polishing operations on metal, plastic, and composite surfaces. Machinists, fabricators, and tool-and-die professionals typically select this wheel for benchtop polishing setups where a hard-density buff is required to maintain profile control on the workpiece.

This polishing wheel fits standard arbor-driven bench buffers and grinders that accept a 1/2-inch arbor. The hard wheel density makes it appropriate for cut-down polishing stages where a firmer contact surface is needed before transitioning to softer finishing compounds. Single-ply construction keeps the wheel lightweight and easy to dress. It is a common choice in machine shops, maintenance facilities, and metal fabrication shops handling repetitive polishing tasks on ferrous and non-ferrous stock.

Key Features

• 8-inch diameter provides broad contact area for efficient material buffing
• 2-inch width accommodates wider workpiece surfaces in a single pass
• 1/2-inch arbor hole fits standard bench buffer and grinder spindles
• Hard wheel density maintains form for controlled cut-down polishing
• Single-ply construction keeps wheel weight low and balance consistent
• Unmounted design allows direct installation on arbor-driven equipment

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-mount polishing wheel for bench buffers and arbor-driven grinders equipped with a 1/2-inch spindle arbor.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or maintenance technicians familiar with bench buffing equipment. Always power down and lock out the machine before mounting or removing the wheel. Inspect the wheel for cracks or damage before each use and confirm the arbor nut is properly torqued per the equipment manufacturer's specifications. Use appropriate eye protection and guards at all times during operation.
