Brush Wheel (end) EPM E-561-1085 — 85 mm abrasive face brush, zinc-coated

EPM E-561-1085 is an 85 mm abrasive face brush designed for surface finishing and light material removal on metal parts. The end brush format is compatible with rotary grinders and bench tools that accept matching arbor sizes. Its zinc-coated construction provides improved corrosion resistance for longer storage and use in workshop environments. Typical applications include deburring, rust and paint removal, surface preparation before welding or painting, and cleaning small components where a compact abrasive face is required.

Advantages

The compact 85 mm diameter offers access to confined areas and small workpieces while maintaining an even abrasive action across the face. Zinc coating reduces the risk of corrosion to the brush body, extending service life in humid or oily workshop conditions. The face brush geometry delivers controlled material removal with minimized gouging compared with more aggressive wire cup wheels, making it suitable for finishing and light-scale cleaning tasks.

Suitable for

• Deburring edges and removing sharp burrs from metal parts
• Removing rust, scale and old paint from small surfaces
• Surface preparation before welding, brazing or repainting
• Cleaning and finishing small castings, machined parts and fittings

Key specifications

• Brush type: face (end) abrasive brush
• Diameter: 85 mm
• Coating/finish: zinc-coated for corrosion resistance
• Intended materials: metal surfaces (steel, iron, non-ferrous metals)
• Typical use: surface finishing, light material removal, cleaning and deburring
• Mounting: end brush format for rotary grinders and bench tools with compatible arbor

How to use

Fit the brush securely to a compatible tool spindle or arbor following the tool manufacturer’s mounting instructions. Inspect the brush for damage before use and wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including eye and hand protection. Operate the tool at the recommended speed range and apply light, even pressure to avoid excessive heat or removal. Use steady, controlled passes across the workpiece surface and avoid prolonged dwelling in one spot to maintain an even finish and prolong brush life.

Usage recommendations

For consistent results, pair the brush with a grinder or bench tool that provides stable speed and minimal vibration. When preparing surfaces for welding or painting, follow up with appropriate cleaning (degreasing) and inspection. Replace the brush if bristles show significant wear, deformation or if performance declines.
