Weiler 08155 Knotted Wheel Brush 8 Inch Carbon Steel

Product Description

The WEILER 08155 is a knotted wire wheel brush designed for aggressive surface conditioning, weld cleaning, rust removal, and scale removal on metal workpieces. Built with a carbon steel wire fill and a standard twist knot configuration, this brush mounts via a 5/8-inch arbor hole and is rated for continuous use up to 6,000 RPM. The 8-inch outside diameter and 1-5/8-inch trim length deliver broad contact coverage, making it well suited for sustained stock removal tasks on a bench or pedestal grinder. Licensed tradespeople and metal fabricators working in welding, pipe fitting, and structural steel applications will find this brush a reliable workhorse for surface prep and post-weld finishing.

The WEILER 08155 is intended for use on bench grinders and pedestal grinders as well as straight grinders. It is a common choice for fabrication shops, industrial maintenance operations, and trade contractors who need consistent wire tension and aggressive cut across weld seams, corrosion layers, and mill scale on ferrous metals. The arbor hole mount style makes installation straightforward on standard spindle diameters.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified tradesperson familiar with abrasive accessory mounting procedures. Always power down and lockout the grinder before mounting or removing the wheel brush. Confirm that the grinder spindle speed does not exceed the 6,000 RPM rated maximum of this brush before operation. Inspect the brush for wire fatigue or deformation before each use and replace if damage is present.
