Wheels in the Standard Abrasives Silicon Carbide HP Unitized Wheel - 500 Series have a soft, conformable density, making them a good match for light-pressure blending, finishing and polishing on flat or contoured parts. When strict tolerances are required, these non-woven abrasive wheels offer operators the finesse needed to deliver precise results.
- Soft density silicon carbide wheel blends surfaces to a fine finish
- Soft density offers exceptional conformability which is especially important for applications with close tolerances
- Cuts faster than Standard Abrasives™ Buff and Blend non-woven products, though with less flexibility
- Silicon Carbide mineral is suitable for ferrous and non-ferrous metals, including exotic metals and titanium, as well as composites
- Runs clockwise and counterclockwise, allowing greater flexibility and versatility when paired with tools and machines
- Open web is load resistant, contributing to longer abrasive service life

PRODUCT FAQ
-
What is the size of the Standard Abrasives™ S/C HP Unitized Wheel 890396, 524 and how many are there per case?
The size of this unitized wheel is 14 inches x 1/2 inch x 1-1/4 inches. There are three wheels per case.
-
What kind of abrasive material does this wheel use?
It uses a high-performance ceramic oxide grain that provides excellent cut rate and durability for tough applications.
-
Can I use these wheels on stainless steel surfaces?
Yes, the Standard Abrasives™ S/C HP Unitized Wheel can be used on various metals including steels, stainless steel and alloys.
-
Is it compatible with my grinder?
This unitized wheel has been designed to work effectively with right angle grinders, bench motors or other equipment equipped with arbors in its specified dimensions. We recommended checking your equipment's compatibility before purchasing any abrasive products.
-
. How long can I expect each wheel to last?
. That depends heavily upon many factors such as grinding pressure applied, type of metal being worked on etc., meaning usage life will vary widely from operator to operator.The product offers longer working hours when compared to conventional abrasives therefore you can focus more time towards process production than worrying about changing worn out abrasive parts very often
Standard Abrasives™ Unitized Wheels offer a range of options for different applications. The 500 Series provides the softest density and is available in medium (MED) and fine (FIN) grade silicon carbide (S/C). These wheels are ideal for applications where a fine finish is more important than cut, such as polishing fillet areas on jet blades and soft metals prior to the coating process. The wheels are conformable and respond to surface irregularities without gouging or undercutting the part. After prolonged use, the wheel may be dressed to maintain its shape.
The Standard Abrasives™ 500 Series S/C Wheels come in two options. Type 532 is an excellent choice for finishing applications. The Type 524 wheel is designed to better suit light-weight blending applications by constructing it with a higher density of MED grade S/C grain throughout the web material, resulting in a slightly more aggressive product.
Compatible with a Variety of ToolsUnitized wheels are typically used on a right angle grinder. The Standard Abrasives™ Silicon Carbide HP Unitized Wheel - 500 Series can be used with a variety of tools, and regardless of which way the workpiece is fed through the machine, the wheel will be able to respond, giving operators more flexibility. The stiffness of the unitized construction enables operators to use thinner wheels to access awkward angles with grinding tools.
Standard Abrasives™ Silicon Carbide HP Unitized Wheel - 500 Series wheels come in a range of diameters from 1-12˝ and require a unitized wheel mandrel (sold separately) for attachment to the tool. Quick change wheels are also available (sold separately).
Non-Woven Unitized Construction Offers a Step Up in Density and Durability for Stubborn SurfacesStandard Abrasives™ Silicon Carbide HP Unitized Wheel - 500 Series 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(TM) 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. The wheel is tough enough to complete high-pressure edgework without tearing or otherwise disintegrating. Regardless of the diameter or thickness of the wheel, it maintains its structural integrity to remain a stiff and long-lasting abrasive even under high pressure. Additionally, as the layers wear, the wheel can be dressed to maintain its shape.
Load-Resistant Construction Boosts Life and PerformanceStandard Abrasives™ Unitized Wheels are load-resistant to keep you cutting with fresh mineral. The gaps in the open web allow unwanted swarf to escape. Consequently, less debris clogs the abrasive, so the mineral can stay fresh, keep cutting sharp and deliver a consistent cut over the life of the product. As the fibers break down and fresh mineral is exposed, it reduces the likelihood of dull or blunt mineral smearing the surface, contributing to cleaner surfaces and less re-work. Furthermore, manual fatigue that may result from applying heavy pressure to a dull abrasive is reduced.
The Many Benefits of Standard Abrasives™ Non-Woven ProductsStandard Abrasives™ Unitized Wheels offer many benefits for heavy-duty jobs. For all the aforementioned reasons, Standard Abrasives™ Unitized Wheels invigorate deburring, cleaning, blending and finishing applications by helping operators reduce finishing steps, minimize costs and achieve greater throughput.
