Description
14" X 3" X 8" 3M (01698) Grey Light Very Fine Convoluted Deburring Wheel
Achieve smooth, professional finishing with the 3M 14" x 3" x 8" Grey Light Very Fine Convoluted Deburring Wheel. Designed for precision deburring, edge blending, and surface finishing, this non-woven convolute wheel delivers a consistent finish while helping preserve the shape of the workpiece. Its open-web construction resists loading, runs cooler than conventional abrasive wheels, and continuously exposes fresh abrasive for long service life. 3M’s deburring wheels are designed to remove burrs and sharp edges without gouging or distorting the material.
Ideal for use on steel, stainless steel, aluminum, brass, copper, composites, and other non-ferrous metals, this Very Fine (V-Fine) grade wheel is excellent when a smoother finish and lighter material removal are required.
