A tough, non-woven nylon web impregnated with resin and mineral throughout its structure Spring-like action produces a burr-free surface Provides uniform consistent results with no undercutting Suitable for deburring, finishing, cleaning and small weld removal applications Easy to use; less rework and expense due to fewer rejects
Scotch-Brite Rapid Cut Wheel products are everything that you love about Scotch-Brite now enabled to do so much more because of 3M Precision Shaped Grain Technology.

•• •• •• •• ••
The precision shaped gain is orientated such that sharp cutting edges are presented to the work piece. As it wears, the grain continuously fractures presenting further sharp cutting edges. The result, a faster, cooler cutting action, coupled with Scotch-Brite unitised technology means that Scotch-Brite Rapid Cut Wheels offer operators a unique product for their heavy deburring and metalworking weld blending needs.

Scotch-Brite™ Cleaning and Finishing Products Operating Hints Getting the most out of Scotch-Brite Wheels Maximum wheel life and best surface conditioning results can be achieved by closely adhering to the following recommendations.
Wheel Direction Convolute wheels must always be run in the direction indicated by the arrow printed on the side/core of each wheel. Flap wheels, lap mops and unitised wheels can be run in either direction.
Wheel Speed Wheel speed is an important factor that affects product finish, rate of cut and wheel life. In fact, over-speeding a wheel may result in its disintegration and the possibility of personal injury. In general, fast wheel speeds give a harder action and finer finish, whereas slower speed gives a softer action and coarser finish for the same wheel density. The following are recommended operating speeds for the most common applications: Cleaning and upgrading of surface conditions: 11 to 30m/sec Buffing metal surfaces: 33 to 40m/sec
Imparting decorative finishes: 5 to 15m/sec Oxide removal: 18 to 33m/sec

Never exceed the maximum r.p.m. rating of the wheel. To establish the peripheral operating speed of a wheel multiply the machine rotational speed by pi diameter and divide by 60. r.p.m. x 3.142D (in metres) Peripheral Operating Speed = r.p.m. x 3.142D (in metres) 60 e.g. For a 200mm convolute cleaning/ finishing wheel fitted to a spindle operating at 2,000 r.p.m. Peripheral Operating Speed = 2000 x (3.142 x 0.2) 60 2000 x 0.62 60 = 20.95 m/sec
Pressure Light to medium pressure is recommended for most operations. Flap wheels require much lighter pressure to perform properly than other Scotch-Brite wheels, whereas unitised wheels can withstand higher pressure in order to perform deburring jobs. In all cases, avoid excessive pressure which may result in wheel deformation and damage to the work surface.
Fast Speed Feed speeds directly affect the number of pieces completed over a given period of time. Slow feed speed reduces the number of workpieces completed, while producing a shorter scratch pattern. Slow feed speeds allow for a longer dwell time and permit more work to be done on each piece. Conversely, a fast feed speed increases the number of workpieces completed, while producing a longer scratch pattern.
Oscillation Oscillation may be used to break-up scratch lines and produce a more uniform finish. Additionally, an increase in cut may be experienced. A general starting point for oscillation is 10mm amplitude at 200 cycles per minute.

General Principles of Safety Abrasive products improperly used can be very dangerous. •• Always follow the instructions provided by the abrasive product and machine suppliers. •• Ensure that the abrasive product is suitable for its intended use. Examine all abrasive products for damage or defects before mounting. •• Follow the correct procedures for handling and storage of abrasive products.
Be aware of the hazards likely during the use of abrasive products and observe the recommended precautions to be taken: •• Bodily contact with the abrasive product at operating speed. •• Injury resulting from product breakage during use. •• Grinding debris, sparks, fumes, and dust generated by the grinding process. •• Noise.
Upgrading to 3M
•• Vibration.
Use only abrasive products conforming to the highest standards of safety. These products will bear the relevant EN standard number and/or the inscription “oSa”. •• EN12413 for Bonded Abrasives •• EN13743 for Specific Coated Abrasives (vulcanised fibre discs, flap wheels, flap discs and spindlemounted flap wheels).
76
Employers should carry out risk assessment on all individual abrasive processes to determine the appropriate protective measures necessary. They should ensure that their employees are suitably trained to carry out their duties.
Precautions Against Likely Hazards
•• After switching off the machine, ensure the product has come to rest before leaving the machine unattended.
•• Use mounting blotters where supplied.
Injury caused by product breakage:
•• After mounting or remounting an abrasive product, conduct a trial run at operating speed with the guard in place for at least 30 seconds, standing clear of the machine before use.
•• Always handle abrasives with great care, they are easily damaged. Examine all products for defects or damage before use. •• Store abrasives in dry, frost-free conditions avoiding wide variations in temperature. Ensure they are properly protected and supported to prevent damage and distortion.
Bodily contact with the abrasive product:
•• Coated abrasives should be stored at 18-22ºC, 45-65% relative humidity.
•• Always take great care and attention when using abrasive products. Tie back long hair and do not wear loose clothing, ties and jewellery.
•• Abrasive belts should be hung on a rod or peg not less that 50mm diameter.
•• Prevent accidental start-up of the machine before mounting or changing an abrasive product. Isolate machines from their power source where necessary. •• Never remove guards from machines where fitted and ensure they are in good condition and properly adjusted before starting the machine. •• Always use gloves and suitable clothing where the workpiece or machine is hand-held. For gloves, a minimum protection level of EN 388 Category 2 is recommended.
•• Never use an abrasive product beyond its expiry date where marked. Observe the recommended shelf life for the following specific products: Resinoid and Shellac products 3 years; rubber products 5 years; vitrified products 10 years. •• Check abrasive product or package for any warnings or other safety information. •• Ensure that the correct abrasive product is selected. Never use a product if it cannot be properly identified. •• Follow the instructions provided by the abrasive product or machine supplier when mounting abrasive products. Observe any mounting indications marked on the product, such as direction of run or mounting position.
•• Do not tighten the mounting device excessively.
•• Never remove guards from machines where fitted and ensure they are in good condition and properly adjusted. •• Ensure that the workpiece is secure and properly supported. Ensure that work rests are properly adjusted and secure. •• Never start the machine with the workpiece in contact with the abrasive product. •• Never apply excess force or shock to the abrasive product or let it overheat. •• Do not grind on the part of the product that is not designed for the operation. Avoid grinding with the edge of abrasive belts; use the centre of the belt if possible. •• Avoid clogging and uneven wear to ensure that the abrasive product is working efficiently. Dress frequently where appropriate.
Grinding debris – sparks, dust and fumes: •• Exposure to grinding debris can cause lung damage and other physical injuries. •• All dry grinding processes should be provided with adequate extraction facilities. •• Do not use abrasive products near flammable materials. •• The use of respirators complying with EN 149 is recommended for dry grinding processes even if extraction systems are provided. •• Guards, where provided, should be adjusted to deflect sparks and debris away from the operator. Take additional measures to protect people working nearby. •• Eye protection is recommended for all machine applications for abrasives. For hand-held machines or workpieces, goggles or full-face shields with a minimum protection level of EN 166 Grade B are recommended. •• Ensure that the correct abrasive product is selected. An unsuitable product can produce excessive debris and dust.
•• Let the abrasive product stop naturally, not by applying pressure to its surface. •• Turn off and spin out excess coolant before stopping the machine. •• Do not leave abrasive belts under tension when not in use.
•• Never force the abrasive product onto the mounting fixture or modify it to fit.
