Description
3M 7000046917 is a Standard Abrasives aluminum oxide unitized wheel made for heavy duty edge deburring and stainless steel polishing. This 3M unitized wheel pairs a medium grade aluminum oxide mineral with a hard density, load resistant construction to withstand high contact pressure while retaining edge durability. Made for production and trade use, the unitized wheel runs on standard mandrels and reverses direction for flexible tool pairing. Ideal where consistent satin or grain finishes are required, the wheel reduces rework and delivers measurable finishing results on ferrous and non ferrous substrates.
Product Features and Benefits
Hard-density construction for edge durability
3M 7000046917 hard wheel density increases edge life and resists folding under high pressure, enabling reliable heavy duty edge deburring and polishing cycles.
Aluminum oxide mineral for consistent finish
This 3M unitized wheel features medium grade aluminum oxide produces a uniform scratch pattern suitable for satin and grain finishing across metals and plated components.
Load-resistant open web extends service life
Open nonwoven web expels swarf, keeps mineral cutting sharp and prolongs wheel life—reducing downtime and abrasive consumption.
Compact unitized format for mandrel-mounted use
2" diameter, 1/8" face unitized wheel mounts on standard mandrels for versatile on-tool polishing, blending and edgework.
