The CGW 60162 is a 3-inch diameter concave wire wheel designed for heavy-duty metal surface preparation. Built with a 1/4-inch shank and a 1-inch trim, this wheel uses oil-drawn wire for improved durability and flexibility, making it well-suited for removing weld scale, rust, and heavy burrs from flat or contoured metal surfaces. At a high operating speed of up to 12,500 RPM, it offers efficient material removal while maintaining control in demanding applications.
This crimped concave wire wheel is intended for use with compatible power tools in metalworking and facility maintenance tasks. The 3" wheel size and .014" wire composition provide a balance between aggressiveness and control, enabling both cleaning and deburring tasks across welded joints or exposed metal areas. Typical use cases include cleaning welds, deburring sharp edges, removing scale, and preparing surfaces for finishing. The product is packaged as individual wheels, with packaging configured for batch ordering (box quantity 10), which can support production needs or maintenance inventory. Proper selection should consider tool arbor compatibility, shank size, and the target material to avoid excessive wear or chatter.
When selecting this wheel, verify the tool compatibility and RPM rating with your equipment to ensure safe and effective operation. As with other wire wheels, inspection for wire looseness or damage is advised before use, and appropriate personal protective equipment should be worn during operation.
