A Strong, Durable Wheel

Combining polyurethane foam with aluminum oxide mineral, the 3M XR Molded Wheel is designed to be strong and dense. The wheel is created by shaping polyurethane foam inside a mold, which hardens to increase its toughness and density. This strength and durability make the 3M XR Molded Wheel ideal for tasks such as deburring, blending, and finishing. When used at the recommended operating speeds, the wheel does not heat up too quickly, making it suitable for use on heat-sensitive metals like stainless steel. Additionally, the wheel's strength and durability help minimize splintering or fraying when deburring edges, resulting in better edge retention and smoother operation. This not only reduces operator fatigue but also allows for effective performance in tough areas.

Benefits of Aluminum Oxide Mineral

One of the key components of the 3M XR Molded Wheel is the aluminum oxide mineral. This mineral is highly favored by industrial professionals due to its fast cut-rate and long life. Unlike traditional natural abrasives that dull quickly, aluminum oxide mineral is a tough and durable abrasive that self-fractures to expose fresh cutting edges. This characteristic allows for consistent and efficient cutting performance over an extended period of time. The aluminum oxide mineral is suitable for a wide range of materials in both woodworking and metalworking, including ferrous alloys.

Spanning Industries

The versatility of the 3M XR Molded Wheel makes it compatible with various tools such as inline sanders, bench motors, and backstands. It is available in a range of grades and sizes, allowing users to select the most suitable wheel for their specific application. With its fast-cutting capabilities, the 3M XR Molded Wheel can be used in a wide range of industries. It is commonly employed in tasks involving turbine engines, metal implants, plumbing fixtures, builders hardware, medical instruments, and other metal fabricated parts. The wheel's ability to balance fast cutting with a fine finish makes it a reliable choice for tackling different types of workpieces, regardless of the industry.
