Wire Wheel Brush Single Section Twisted Plain 175mmxm14 Blister

Features

• 175 mm wheel diameter with M14 arbor mount — designed to fit larger angle grinders rated for big-wheel use, enabling heavy-duty surface cleaning.
• Twisted-steel wire bristles (twist knot) deliver aggressive, deep cleaning on rust, scale, paint, old coatings and corrosion on robust metal surfaces.
• Single-section wheel design simplifies mounting and handling while maximising surface contact for efficient material removal.

Benefits

• Rapid large-area prep: large wheel covers more area per pass — ideal for big metal sheets, frames, structural steel or large castings — saving considerable time compared to smaller brushes.
• Consistent cleaning result: twisted-wire bristles offer aggressive but even brushing, ensuring uniform removal of rust, paint or scale across large surfaces.
• Versatile heavy-duty tool: serves well in fabrication, maintenance, structural repairs, metal refurbishing and preparatory work before welding or painting on large parts.
• Cost-effective for bulk surface work: one large brush often replaces several smaller brushes or manual sanding — reducing labour and increasing efficiency.

Extra Information

• Best used on steel, castings or other hard metals where heavy-duty cleaning is required — avoid use on soft metals or delicate surfaces where wire marks are undesirable.
• Ensure your angle grinder and guard are rated for 175 mm wheel size and compatible with M14 arbor before mounting. Use proper PPE when operating — metal dust, debris and flying particles are hazardous.
• Use steady, even pressure and consistent motion to avoid gouging or uneven surface finish; let the wheel's twisted-wire bristles do the work rather than forcing it.
• After brushing, clean the surface thoroughly to remove metal dust, rust particles or loose wire fragments before painting, coating or welding to ensure proper adhesion and avoid imperfections.

Specifications

Safety

• Always wear eye, ear and dust protection when using large wire-wheel brushes — metal dust, rust particles and stray wires can be hazardous.
• Use gloves and protective clothing to guard against metal fragments, sparks or debris.
• Ensure the angle grinder is rated for 175 mm wheel use and has the correct guard fitted. Secure the workpiece firmly to avoid slippage or kick-back risk.
• Inspect the wheel before each use — discard if wires are bent, loose or damaged to prevent uneven cleaning or dangerous breakage.
• Operate with steady, moderate pressure and keep the brush in motion — avoid pressing hard to prevent gouging, overheating or wire failure.
