3M 13176 Convolute Wheel Power Tool

Silicon Carbide Convolute Wheel

This 6-inch non-woven wheel uses silicon carbide abrasive in an open-coat construction. It mounts on a 1-inch arbor and is rated for 6,000 RPM maximum operating speed. The soft density rating suits contoured surfaces and blending tasks.

Multi-Finishing Applications

The coarse grade and black colour indicate aggressive cut for deburring, blending and finishing metals. Soft density conforms to irregular shapes without gouging. Buyers needing fine polishing or high stock removal on flat plate should look at other wheel grades.

1-Inch Arbor Compatibility

The wheel fits tools with a 1-inch centre hole, so verify your sander or grinder arbor before purchase. Using an incorrect arbor size prevents safe mounting and risks wheel failure at speed.
