Weiler 85978 Nylox Disc Brush
The Weiler 85978 is a 5 inch maximum density Nylox disc brush designed for industrial surface conditioning tasks. It uses a tufted filament configuration with longer trim length to deliver increased aggression and conformability compared to standard monofilament disc brushes. Professional operators choose this accessory for deburring, edge blending and finishing operations on power tools where consistent cutting action is required. The brush is manufactured in the United States of America.
80 SC Crimped Rectangular Fill Capacity
Silicon Carbide grain provides a sharp cutting action that handles moderate to heavy material removal on metal surfaces. The rectangular filament shape increases contact area and reduces conformability for more aggressive brushing than round filaments can achieve. Type 6.12 nylon polymer binds the abrasive grain for extended product life in production environments. Very fine finishing or delicate polishing tasks fall outside the effective range of this grit and filament combination.
5 Inch Maximum Density Construction
The 5 inch diameter and maximum density tufting determine fitment on compatible right-angle grinders and drive arbors. Users must verify their tool accepts this specific disc brush format before purchase. The longer trim length extends usable life but does not alter the mounting interface or operating speed limits of the host tool. Buyers needing smaller diameters or different arbor configurations cannot use this model.

Questions about this item
Will the 80 SC crimped rectangular fill work with my existing 5 inch angle grinder?
The 5 inch diameter matches standard angle grinder arbors, and the crimped rectangular fill is designed for use on portable power tools.
How can I confirm the Nylox disc brush is performing correctly after installation?
Look for consistent material removal and a uniform surface finish; the silicon carbide grain should cut cleanly without excessive vibration.
Does the 85978 brush come with any mounting hardware or do I need to buy an adapter separately?
The brush is supplied as the disc only; any required arbor adapter or flange must be purchased separately.
