Weiler 97713 Wire Wheel Adapter 2 to 0.5 Inch

Product Description

The WEILER 97713 is a metal wire wheel adapter designed to reduce a 2-inch arbor hole to a 0.5-inch bore, allowing wire wheels or wire cup brushes with a 2-inch center opening to mount on spindles and arbors with a 0.5-inch diameter. This type of adapter is a simple, single-piece hardware fitting that eliminates the need to source a wheel matched exactly to the tool spindle size. It is used by metalworkers, fabricators, maintenance technicians, and trade professionals who run wire wheels on bench grinders, angle grinders, or other power tools where arbor sizes do not match directly.

This adapter suits applications where a wire wheel rated for a 2-inch arbor hole must be fitted to a 0.5-inch spindle. Common install scenarios include bench grinder setups in fabrication shops, maintenance facilities, and field service environments. The adapter is sold individually as a single unit. It is appropriate for light to moderate duty wire wheel mounting tasks and is compatible with standard metalworking abrasive accessories that share the 2-inch-to-0.5-inch arbor specification.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with abrasive accessory mounting procedures. Always power down and unplug the tool before changing wheels or adapters. Confirm that the wire wheel RPM rating meets or exceeds the maximum spindle speed of the tool. Follow applicable ANSI B11 and OSHA abrasive wheel safety guidelines when mounting and using wire wheel accessories.
