Product Type and Purpose
The 3M 05132 is a convolute deburring wheel designed for use with sanders. It uses a non-woven silicon carbide abrasive in an open coating to remove burrs and refine surfaces. The wheel carries a hard density rating of 9 and a fine grade for controlled material removal.
Suitable Users and Limitations
This wheel suits operators running compatible sanders at speeds up to 6 000 RPM who need a 1 inch face width and a 1 inch centre hole. It is not for users requiring a different arbor size, a wider or narrower face, or a softer density for more conformable finishing.
Critical Specification
The maximum operating speed is 6 000 RPM, and the wheel must only be mounted on equipment that does not exceed this limit. Exceeding the rated speed can cause wheel failure and serious injury, so verifying the tool's free speed is the decisive factor before purchase.

Questions about this item
What arbor size does my bench grinder need to fit the 1 in connector on this wheel?
The wheel has a 1 in centre hole, so your grinder must accept a 1 in arbor or come with a matching bushing.
Will the 6 000 RPM maximum speed work safely on a standard 3 600 RPM bench grinder?
Yes, the wheel is rated for up to 6 000 RPM, which is well above the typical 3 600 RPM speed of many bench grinders.
How can I confirm the wheel is cutting correctly once it is mounted?
A properly running wheel produces a steady grey dust trail and removes burrs without loading or glazing on the non‑woven surface.
