Weiler 09430 Knotted Wheel Brush 8 in Carbon Steel

Product Description

The WEILER 09430 is a knotted wire wheel brush designed for aggressive surface preparation and weld cleaning on bench grinders, pedestal grinders, and right-angle or straight die grinders. The brush features a standard twist knot pattern in carbon steel wire, which delivers consistent cutting action on rust, scale, paint, and weld spatter. At 8 inches in outside diameter with a 1-inch face width and a 2-inch arbor hole, it mounts directly to bench or pedestal grinder arbors without a shank adapter. Maximum rated speed is 6,000 RPM. Wire diameter falls in the 0.0100 to 0.0199 inch range, suited for moderate to heavy stock removal tasks common in metal fabrication and maintenance work.

This wheel brush is intended for use in metal fabrication shops, welding operations, and industrial maintenance environments. Typical applications include pre-weld joint cleaning, post-weld slag and spatter removal, surface rust and mill scale stripping, and paint removal from steel substrates. It is compatible with bench grinders, pedestal grinders, right-angle die grinders, and straight grinders. The 1-5/8 inch trim length provides a firm, controlled brush action appropriate for flat and contoured workpiece surfaces.
