Product Details
The 3M™ Scotch-Brite™ metal finishing wheel MF-WL measures 8" x 3" x 1" and features aluminum oxide abrasive with a medium grade designed to combine conformability with consistent abrasive cutting action, providing uniform brushed stainless and satin finishes. It is used effectively to blend and match #3 or #4 mill finishes on stainless steel and to create brushed or satin finishes on items such as cutlery, appliance trim, builders hardware, and plumbing fixtures. On softer metals like aluminum, copper, and brass, the wheel blends out minor surface imperfections and handling marks while providing a decorative finish. Typically used on stationary machinery, the wheels are available in diameters ranging from 6 to 16 inches and widths of 1/2 inch and greater, and they are convolutedly wound on a core for smooth running and professional results. The aluminum oxide abrasive is chosen for its high cut rate, hardness, strength, and low heat retention, making it suitable for grinding, sanding, and finishing on a wide variety of substrates including ferrous alloys. Scotch-Brite™ industrial abrasives incorporate abrasives into non-woven nylon or synthetic fibers in an open-web material that runs cool and is load resistant, maintaining high-performance cutting by limiting clogging. Key applications include blending, finishing, polishing, straightline brushed finishes, and weld cleaning. The product complies with industry standards and certifications for industrial abrasives, and it comes with warranty terms that ensure quality and performance.
