Abrasive nylon wheel brushes are used to remove burrs, blend edges, and improve surface condition. Additional applications include parts cleaning and the removal of rust, paint, and scale. As an American manufacturer of a full line of brush tools and flexible hones, Brush Research Manufacturing (BRM) offers a wide variety of nylon abrasive wheel brushes. 

Choices include abrasive nylon wheels for light deburring, NamPower composite hub wheels for high-performance surface finishing, and nylon abrasive wheel brushes with copper centers. BRM also supplies mandrel-mounted abrasive wheel brushes with both standard and flared designs. Although some brush tools have additional specifications, standard parameters are diameter, trim length, abrasive, and grit.     

Wheel Brushes for Light Deburring

In addition to light deburring, standard nylon abrasive wheel brushes are suitable for edge blending and surface finishing. Safe and non-reactive, these industrial brush tools are an excellent alternative to steel filament brushes for extrusion cut-off burrs. Nylon abrasive wheel brushes for light deburring mount on most pedestal grinders, a type of grinding machine used to hand-grind cutting tools such as drill bits.    

When selecting standard nylon abrasive wheels, choose brushing tools that use aluminum oxide (AO) or silicon carbide (SC) abrasive. BRM recommends aluminum oxide abrasive for brass, bronze, and softer metals. Silicon carbide abrasive is suitable for parts made of mild steel, stainless steel, and cast iron. Grit selection in also important to consider. Options include 80, 120, 180, 320, and 500 AO and SC wheels.
