Scotch-Brite™ DB-WL Deburring Wheel

The 3M Scotch-Brite DB-WL deburring wheel is a spiral-wound non-woven wheel with silicon carbide. 3M designs it for light to medium edge deburring on carbon steel, stainless steel, titanium and soft metals.

Specifications

• Mineral: silicon carbide.
• Construction: spiral-wound non-woven, hard wheel.
• Designations: 7S fine, 8S medium, 9S fine.
• Dimensions: 150 x 25 mm (25 mm bore), 200 x 25 mm and 200 x 50 mm (76 mm bore).

A hard but conformable wheel

A deburring wheel must be hard enough to attack the burr firmly, and soft enough not to cut into the part. The DB-WL strikes that balance: 3M describes it as a hard, conformable wheel that removes burrs without abrading the machined part.

The spiral construction ensures smooth running and consistent results. The non-woven resists loading and constantly exposes fresh grain.

Less heat

The wheel minimises heating of the part, which reduces the risk of discolouration and distortion on heat-sensitive materials. It also leaves a finish that often allows a later step to be skipped.

Reading the designation

The number indicates the wheel's density: the higher it is, the denser and harder the wheel. The letter S stands for silicon carbide.

Mounting

The 150 mm fits a bench grinder or portable machine with a 25 mm bore; the 200 mm wheels fit a stationary machine with a 76 mm bore. Respect the maximum speed marked on the wheel.
