Nonwoven abrasive wheels, brushes work on steel, brass, aluminum

Osborn has introduced a new line of JacksonLea® nonwoven abrasive wheels and brushes. The heavy-duty, nonwoven products provide consistent cleaning, finishing, and polishing on a variety of materials, including steel, brass, and aluminum, the company reports.

Surface-finishing wheels are soft-density, medium-grit, silicon-carbide convolute wheels for generating #3 and #4 finishes on flat, contoured, and curved surfaces. Light-deburring wheels are medium-density, fine-grit convolute wheels for highly polished finishes. General-deburring wheels are hard-density, fine-grit convolute wheels that provide value for edge deburring. Metal-blending wheels are available in soft and hard density and medium grit to provide economical metal finishing.

General-finishing flap brushes offer consistent surface finishing with good conformability, the company states. Spin-On™ finishing flap brushes feature a 5/8-11 threaded adapter for mounting on a variety of hand tools.
