Scotch-Brite EXL Unitized Wheels feature a soft, conformable consistency that effectively smooths, deburrs and finishes the edges of metal alloys, as well as many plastics and composites. There are a variety of densities and grades starting from a very soft 2 density for applications requiring conformability to a hard, aggressive 8 density for maximum cut and durability.
- Wheel edge can be dressed for effective deburring, finishing and polishing of all metal alloys and many plastics and composites
- Tough, layered, unitized construction can operate clockwise or counterclockwise directions
- Conformability allows abrasive to stay in contact with complex-shaped parts in robotic processing
- Densities and grades ranging from soft and conformable to hard and aggressive offer utility for a wide variety of applications
- Resists smearing for cleaner surfaces and less preparation
- Minimizes heat build-up to lessen impact on heat-sensitive materials

PRODUCT FAQ
-
What is the Scotch-Brite™ EXL Unitized Wheel made of?
The Scotch-Brite™ EXL Unitized Wheel is made of a durable, non-woven material consisting of aluminum oxide and silicon carbide mineral.
-
Can I use this wheel for metal surfaces?
Yes, you can. This unitized wheel works well on various metals such as stainless steel and aerospace alloys to provide exceptional finishes during final finishing stages.
-
Is it easy to install the 3M's Scotch-Brite™ EXL Unitized Wheel on my machine?
Absolutely! You can easily slide it onto your bench motor or any other compatible machines with its readily available arbor hole design.
-
How long does this product last before needing replacement or reordering?
Since the 3M's Scotch-Brite™ EXL Unitized Wheel has a continuous supply of mineral abrasives throughout its life cycle, it lasts longer than conventional abrasive products. However, since each application differs from one another in terms of usage intensity, we suggest replacing them as needed based on visual cues such as wear debris accumulation.
-
Will this product leave scratches on delicate surfaces like plastics?
No. This unitized wheel provides consistent finishing results across all types of materials with an extra fine grade rating; hence it won't leave visible scratches or marks even when used near edges during deburring.
Consistent Performance on a Variety of Substrates
The Scotch-Brite™ EXL Unitized Wheel is designed to provide a clean edge without smearing, which reduces the need for additional clean up and preparation. It is optimized for use on a die grinder, minimizing heat buildup during operation, making it ideal for use on heat-sensitive materials. This wheel is filled with abrasive minerals that quickly smooth edges of metal, plastic, and composites. It is available in fine, medium, coarse, and extra coarse grades with aluminum oxide, and very fine and fine grades with silicon carbide.
Ideal for Robotic Deburring
Scotch-Brite™ EXL Unitized Wheel is an excellent option for robotic deburring due to its wide range of conformability options and high consistency. It quickly removes burrs and sharp edges in end-of-arm tooling operations, delivering consistent performance through the full life of the abrasive. Scotch-Brite™ offers unique surface conditioning products with abrasives incorporated into nonwoven nylon fibers. Combining abrasives with the fibers creates an abrasive system that delivers consistent results over the life of the product. The open-web material is load resistant and keeps the abrasive minerals cutting at high performance by limiting clogging of the nylon fibers.
