Weiler 98431 Wheel Brush 1 in Crimped Brass 37000 Rpm

Product Description

The WEILER 98431 is a 1-inch diameter crimped-wire wheel brush designed for light deburring, cleaning, and surface preparation on metal and other hard materials. It mounts via a 1/8-inch shank, making it compatible with rotary tools, die grinders, and similar handheld power tools. The brush fills with brass wire in a crimped configuration, which provides a flexible, consistent scrubbing action without aggressive stock removal. At a rated maximum speed of 37,000 RPM, the 98431 is built for high-speed rotary use. Trim length is 5/16 inch. Suitable for technicians and tradespeople who need a compact, shank-mounted brush for detail work in confined spaces.

This wheel brush is used in maintenance, fabrication, and field-service applications where a small-diameter rotating brush is needed to clean ports, threads, fittings, or weld areas. Its compact 1-inch diameter and 1/8-inch shank make it practical for use in tight access areas on HVAC equipment, plumbing assemblies, electrical enclosures, and general mechanical components. The brass wire material is appropriate for cleaning softer base metals or surfaces where ferrous contamination from steel wire is undesirable.

Installation Notes

Always confirm the tool's rated maximum RPM meets or exceeds 37,000 RPM before mounting this brush. Ensure the shank is fully seated and the chuck is tightened securely before operation. Wear appropriate eye protection — wire wheel brushes can shed filaments at speed. Inspect the brush for damaged or splayed wire before each use and replace if wear is excessive.
