8-inch stainless wire wheel brush
The Weiler 06490 is an 8-inch diameter wire wheel brush with a 1-inch face width and 0.012-inch diameter crimped stainless steel bristles. It mounts via a 2-inch threaded hole for use on bench grinders. The brush is rated for a maximum operating speed of 20,000 RPM.
Metalworkers cleaning stainless steel
This brush suits operators who need to clean, deburr or finish stainless steel surfaces without contaminating the workpiece with carbon steel residue. It is not for users who require aggressive stock removal on heavy scale or welds, nor for anyone needing a brush that fits a handheld angle grinder or a different arbor size.
20,000 RPM maximum speed rating
The 20,000 RPM limit is the critical specification that determines whether this wheel matches your bench grinder. Running the brush above this speed creates a serious safety hazard and will cause premature wire failure. Always verify your grinder's no-load speed before mounting.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the brush is running true on my bench grinder after mounting it?
Mount the brush on the grinder's threaded arbor, start the motor and watch the 8 in diameter face at the rated 20,000 RPM maximum; a steady, vibration-free rotation with even stainless wire contact shows it is working as intended.
What comes in the package and what must I supply myself?
The box contains the 8 in stainless wire wheel brush with a 2 in threaded hole; you must provide a compatible bench grinder and any required mounting hardware such as flanges or adapters.
Which version of this brush should I choose for general stainless steel cleaning?
Choose the 06490 model with 1 in face width, 0.012 in crimped stainless wire and 20,000 RPM rating; it is the single specification offered for bench-grinder use on stainless steel.
