Weiler 97732 Wheel Brush 6 in Crimped Nylon 180 Grit

Product Description

The WEILER 97732 is a 6-inch diameter wheel brush designed for surface conditioning, deburring, and finishing applications across metalworking and fabrication environments. It uses crimped nylon filaments infused with 180-grit silicon carbide abrasive, delivering consistent scratch patterns and controlled material removal without the aggressive bite of wire brushes. The arbor-hole mount fits standard bench grinders and finishing machines. At a rated maximum speed of 3,600 RPM, it is suited for light to medium surface prep work. Machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians are the typical users of this tool.

This wheel brush is commonly used in metal fabrication shops, production finishing lines, and maintenance facilities for deburring cut edges, blending weld seams, and preparing surfaces before coating or inspection. Its nylon construction with silicon carbide abrasive makes it appropriate for use on aluminum, stainless steel, and other materials where a softer, more controlled abrasive action is preferred over steel wire. The 1-inch face width and 1.25-inch trim length provide a defined contact zone suitable for edge work and flat surface finishing.

Key Features

• Crimped nylon filaments with 180-grit silicon carbide abrasive for controlled surface finishing
• 6-inch outside diameter with a 2-inch arbor hole for standard machine mounting
• 1-inch face width provides a defined contact path for edge deburring and blending
• 1.25-inch trim length maintains consistent filament flex and abrasive contact
• Rated to 3,600 RPM maximum for use on bench grinders and finishing equipment
• Non-encapsulated crimped fill for uniform abrasive distribution across the face

Compatibility

Designed for use on bench grinders, arbor-driven finishing machines, and similar equipment with a 2-inch arbor hole and a rated speed at or above 3,600 RPM. No shank is included; arbor-hole mounting is required.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified operator following the grinder or finishing machine manufacturer's mounting instructions. Always power down and lock out the machine before mounting or removing the wheel brush. Confirm that the machine's rated spindle speed meets or exceeds the brush's 3,600 RPM maximum before operation. Inspect the filaments for damage before each use and do not exceed the rated maximum speed.
