10-inch Wire Wheel Brush
This crimped-wire wheel brush is designed for bench-grinder use on carbon steel surfaces. Its 10-inch diameter and 1-1/8-inch face width cover a broad area for cleaning, deburring and surface preparation. The carbon-steel bristles measure 0.020 inch in diameter and 3 inches in length. A 2-inch threaded hole mounts directly to the grinder arbor.
Best for bench-grinder operators
Suited for metalworkers who need aggressive material removal on flat or contoured carbon steel parts. Not intended for handheld angle grinders or tools that lack a 2-inch threaded arbor. Users requiring finer finishes or non-ferrous metal compatibility should consider alternative brush types.
Maximum operating speed 12 500 RPM
The brush is rated for a top speed of 12 500 revolutions per minute. Exceeding this limit risks bristle breakage and unsafe operation. Always verify that the bench grinder's no-load speed does not surpass the rated maximum before mounting.

Questions about this item
How much heat or vibration does the 10 inch .020 wire wheel produce during extended bench grinder sessions?
The crimped carbon steel bristles run at up to 12 500 RPM on a bench grinder; normal operation generates typical grinding heat and vibration for this wheel class.
What arbor size must my bench grinder have to mount the 2 inch threaded hole on this brush?
The wheel requires a 2 inch threaded arbor hole, so your bench grinder spindle must match that diameter and thread pattern.
Will the .020 bristle diameter damage softer metals I still finish with older buffing wheels?
The 0.02 inch carbon steel wire is designed for carbon steel workpieces; it can mar softer metals if used with the same pressure as finer buffing wheels.
