Standard Abrasives™ 7000046997 632 Quick-Change Unitized Wheel, 3 in Dia Wheel, 1/4 in W Face, Fine Grade, Silicon Carbide Abrasive

Wheels in our Standard Abrasives™ quick-change silicon carbide unitized wheel 600 series have a soft to medium density, making them a good match for medium-pressure finishing and polishing on smaller areas of flat or contoured parts. Choose a 600 series wheel when your application calls for an upgrade in edge durability over a series 500 wheel. Our Standard Abrasives™ quick-change silicon carbide (S/C) unitized wheel 600 series has a soft to medium density when compared to other wheels in our Standard Abrasives™ unitized wheels line. Constructed with fine (FIN) grade silicon carbide, this double duty non-woven abrasive wheel combines durability with a fine scratch pattern, making it a great choice for projects that require an aggressive cut yet soft finish - namely, tough finishing and polishing applications. When it comes to polishing, trust Standard Abrasives™ S/C 600 series unitized wheel for polishing fillet areas on jet blades and aircraft parts, polishing after weld removal and polishing mold and die, cast aluminum, brass and copper. It's also a good match for finishing of surgical instruments and prosthetics. Due to their conformability, these wheels are great for projects with strict tolerances, because they respond to surface irregularities. After prolonged use, the wheel may be dressed to maintain its shape. Standard Abrasives™ quick-change unitized wheels are available in smaller sizes. Quick-change wheels allow tool-free swap outs, maintain secure attachment at high speeds, and save operators time when switching discs between grades or applications. Easy fastening and swapping of wheels enhances tool efficiency and worker productivity. Choose the wheel compatible with your TR or TS holder pad. TR wheels have a nylon threaded male hub that easily threads onto TR or 3M™ Roloc™ type holder pads with a turn of the wrist, and the TS system has a metal hub that fastens to its holder pad with a simple twist. All Standard Abrasives™ TS and TR holder pads have a 1/4-20 female thread. A 1/4 in TA4 mandrel attaches the holder pad to the tool. Standard Abrasives™ unitized wheels are a great match for tough deburring, cleaning, blending and finishing applications. They come in a broad range of densities and grades to suit different metals, the degree of aggressiveness required, shape of the part and desired finish. Although used for some of the same tasks as Standard Abrasives™ buff and blend products, they are designed with a far stronger and denser construction to support more aggressive applications and accomplish material removal more rapidly. Even though unitized wheels are much stiffer products, the non-woven nylon fibers of the wheel maintain the advantage of responding to surface irregularities while preserving the geometry of the piece, and produce a consistent finish. Unitized wheels are created by starting with layers of open web material that combines non-woven fiber strands and abrasive mineral with a tough resin bond. These layers of web are then cured and compressed together. By fusing layers of open web, the abrasive gains more toughness and durability, so it can withstand repeated wear. Ultimately, the wheel's durability is what makes it such a good match for edges.
