6-inch twist knot wire wheel
The Weiler 08106 is a 6-inch twist knot wire wheel brush designed for use with angle grinders. It features carbon steel bristles with a 0.023-inch diameter and a 1/2-inch face width for aggressive surface preparation. The brush mounts via a 5/8-11 threaded arbor for secure attachment. It is rated for a maximum operating speed of 9,000 RPM.
Replaces worn or smooth cup brushes
This twist knot wheel replaces cup brushes or worn wheels when a narrower face width and longer bristle length are needed for reaching into corners or cleaning weld seams. The knot construction delivers higher impact than crimped wire for heavy scale and slag removal. The upgrade is worth it when the workpiece requires a 1-3/8-inch trim length to access recessed areas.
Verify grinder spindle thread and speed
Before ordering, confirm the angle grinder has a 5/8-11 spindle thread to match the brush arbor. Ensure the tool’s maximum no-load speed does not exceed 9,000 RPM to operate within the brush’s safety rating. Check that the grinder guard can accommodate a 6-inch diameter wheel with a 1/2-inch face width.

Questions about this item
Does the 5/8-11 threaded arbor match my angle grinder spindle?
The brush has a 5/8 in. -11 threaded hole that screws directly onto a matching angle grinder spindle.
How do I mount the brush without cross-threading the 5/8-11 hole?
Hand-tighten the brush onto the spindle until the face seats firmly, then snug with the grinder's wrench; do not overtighten.
When should I replace the brush as the 0.023 in. carbon steel wires wear down?
Replace the wheel when the twist knots shorten noticeably or the brush no longer cleans effectively at 9,000 RPM.
