-
; Do you have any safety recommendations or best practices when using the Standard Abrasives™ GP Plus Wheel?
The first rule to follow whenever using an abrasive tool is proper Personal Protective Equipment(PPE) - gloves,goggles if necessary and protective clothing. Next make sure that work surfaces stay fixed securely preventing slip-ups.It's always better safe than sorry so our recommendation would be to ensure all standard industrial practices."
-
. Is there anything else that comes in the case besides the two Standard Abrasives™ GP Plus Wheels?
:No, Each case contains only two pieces of abrasive wheels which have been rigorously tested by professionals at 3M.Happy shopping!
The Standard Abrasives™ General Purpose Plus Wheel is a convolute wheel that winds an open web of abrasive grain, nylon fibers and resin around a core. The wheel provides excellent durability for the toughest edge and flat surface deburring applications. It's great for medium to heavy burr removal on parts with heavy edges and turbine blades. It may also be used for machine and belt mark blending, as well as fine finishing on parts like surgical tools.
The wheel utilizes either silicon carbide or aluminum oxide – and are available in medium to hard densities, ranging from 8 to 10. Together, these properties combine to cut aggressively, maintain wheel shape and stand up to edges. Nylon fibers in the open web break down while deburring the surface, exposing fresh, sharp mineral. The wheel breakdown contributes to consistent cutting action. Gaps between the nylon fibers allow swarf and debris to escape, keeping the mineral sharp and preventing blunt or dull edges that might gouge or blemish the surface of the workpiece. Subsequently, smear-resistant finishes result.
Tips for Optimal Use- As a convolute wheel, the Standard Abrasives™ General Purpose Plus Wheel should run at recommended operating speeds.
- Use low to medium pressure, and in the direction of the arrow imprinted on the wheel.
- Using lubricants may also help wash away unwanted swarf and debris and keep the abrasive running cool.
- The wheel may be used on straight shaft stationary and portable tools, feed-through machines and automated equipment.
Following these recommended measures will help to ensure operator safety and optimal performance of the wheel. The versatile range of tools that the wheel may be used with gives operators an added level of flexibility and convenience, as they may manipulate the wheel to meet their unique project needs.
