3M 7010298962 | 28739 3/8-24 Thread Flange Nut

Description

3M 7010298962 is a purpose built flange nut engineered to secure 3M unitized wheels and depressed-center grinding wheels on right angle grinders and disc sanders. The flange profile distributes clamp pressure across the wheel’s bore, eliminating the need for a separate washer and improving wheel stability during high torque operations.Manufactured from high strength steel with a scratch resistant protective coating, this 3m flange nut offers corrosion resistance and long service life in demanding shop environments. Threaded to 3/8-24 fine thread standards, the nut provides precision fit and repeatable installation torque for consistent wheel retention and safe operation. Use the 3 8 fine thread flange nut to simplify wheel changes and maintain correct alignment when mounting abrasives on right angle grinders and disc sanders.

Product Features and Benefits

Flange design for uniform pressure distribution

The integral flange spreads clamping force over the wheel bore to reduce point loading; this improves wheel stability and minimizes runout during grinding.

3/8-24 fine thread for secure mounting

The 3m flang nut has a standard 3/8-24 fine thread ensures precise engagement with grinder spindles and repeatable torque retention for safer operation under load.

High strength steel construction

The Angle grinder flange nut forged steel body provides mechanical strength to resist deformation and maintain secure retention over repeated wheel changes and high RPM use.

Scratch resistant protective coating

Durable coating reduces corrosion and surface wear, extending service life and maintaining reliable fit in production environments.

Washer free installation for faster wheel changes

Flange eliminates the requirement for a separate washer, simplifying assembly and reducing parts count during abrasive replacement.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this nut compatible with unitized wheels and depressed-center grinding wheels?

Yes, 3M 7010298962 is specifically designed to secure unitized wheels and depressed-center grinding wheels on compatible spindles.

What is the thread size for this flange nut?

The nut uses a 3/8-24 fine thread standard for secure engagement with typical grinder spindles.

Can I use this as an angle grinder flange nut replacement?

Yes, it is suitable as an angle grinder flange nut for tools that accept 3/8-24 threaded fasteners.

Do I still need a washer when using this 3M flange nut?

No, the flange design removes the need for a separate washer by distributing pressure across the wheel bore.
