Value Collection 516052 Polishing Buffing Wheel 10in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 516052 is an unmounted polishing buffing wheel designed for surface finishing and polishing applications. At 10 inches in diameter and 2 inches thick, this single-ply wheel offers a medium-density construction suited for achieving smooth, polished finishes on metal, wood, and similar materials. The 1/2-inch arbor hole allows for direct mounting to standard bench grinders, polishing lathes, and arbor presses. At 2.7 pounds, the wheel is substantial enough for consistent contact pressure without excessive load on the machine spindle. Metalworkers, fabricators, and finishing technicians are the primary installers and users of this wheel.

This buffing wheel is used in shop and production environments where surface finishing, deburring, or final polishing passes are required. It is appropriate for both ferrous and non-ferrous materials in general fabrication, metal finishing, and maintenance settings. The medium density makes it versatile for compound-applied polishing as well as light cut-and-color work on flat and contoured surfaces.

Key Features

• 10-inch diameter provides a wide polishing surface area for efficient material coverage
• 2-inch thickness supports consistent face contact and extended wheel life
• Medium-density construction balances cut rate and surface finish quality
• 1/2-inch arbor hole fits standard bench grinder and polishing lathe spindles
• Single-ply design delivers firm, controlled buffing action
• Lightweight at 2.7 pounds for reduced spindle stress during operation

Compatibility

Designed as an unmounted polishing wheel for use with bench grinders, polishing lathes, and arbor-mounted finishing machines equipped with a 1/2-inch spindle arbor.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists or finishing technicians familiar with bench grinder and polishing lathe equipment. Always power down and lock out the machine before mounting or removing the wheel. Ensure the arbor nut and flanges are properly seated and tightened before operating at speed. Inspect the wheel for damage before each use and never exceed the rated RPM marked on the wheel or the machine manufacturer specifications.
