CGW 36212 is a 3 inch diameter, 1 inch wide, 1/4 inch shank flap wheel designed for versatile surface preparation and finishing on metal substrates. Featuring alternating flaps of non-woven maroon material and 80-grit aluminum oxide coated abrasive, this wheel provides a balanced blend of material removal and finishing action. The medium-grade wheel is suitable for cleaning, blending, and deburring aluminum and stainless steels, as well as ferrous and non-ferrous metals, while the fine-grade potential is implied by the 80 grit to yield satin-like finishes on compatible materials.
The interleaf construction supports more uniform abrasion across the workpiece, reducing gouges and producing consistent surface texture. The 20,000 RPM rating indicates the wheel is intended for high-speed use on compatible power tools, maximizing productivity in rapid surface finishing and deburring tasks. The combination of non-woven and coated abrasive segments helps manage heat buildup and prolongs wheel life under typical metalworking conditions.
Ideal use scenarios include preparing aluminum and stainless steel surfaces for further finishing steps, deburring sharp edges, and achieving a smoother appearance on both ferrous and non-ferrous metals. This wheel is sized for tools that accept a 1/4 inch shank and is packaged as individual wheels with a box quantity of 10, enabling easy stocking and replacement in maintenance and shop environments. Always verify tool compatibility and rotation speed before use to ensure safe operation and optimal results.
