Weiler 01068 6 Inch Crimped Wheel Brush Carbon Steel

Product Description

The WEILER 01068 is a 6-inch diameter wheel brush designed for aggressive surface conditioning, deburring, and cleaning on metal workpieces. It mounts via an arbor hole and uses crimped carbon steel wire filaments, which provide consistent pressure and flex during operation. The brush runs at a maximum rated speed of 6,000 RPM and features a face width of 0.5 inches with a trim length of 1-7/16 inches. Weighing 0.08 pounds, it is a lightweight tool suited for installation on bench grinders, pedestal grinders, straight grinders, and automated CNC or milling machines. Licensed trades and industrial machinists rely on this style of brush for prep work and finish operations.

This wheel brush is built for use in both manual and automated machining environments. Typical applications include deburring cast or machined parts, scale removal, surface blending, and weld cleanup. It is compatible with bench or pedestal grinders, straight grinders, automatic machines, CNC machines, and milling setups. The arbor hole mount makes it straightforward to swap onto existing arbors without additional hardware, provided the arbor diameter matches the 3/4-inch hole size.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified operator familiar with abrasive wheel mounting procedures. Always power down and lock out the grinder or machine before mounting or removing the brush. Verify that the machine spindle speed does not exceed the 6,000 RPM maximum rating marked on the brush. Inspect the brush for damage before each use and ensure the arbor nut is tightened securely according to the machine manufacturer's specifications.
