Brush disc-angular braided ZN 100 mm by EPM, model E-561-5100

The EPM brush disc-angular braided ZN 100 mm (model E-561-5100) is a compact abrasive accessory intended for use with angle grinders and similar rotary tools. Its braided zinc-coated wire construction provides a balance of flexibility and aggressiveness for tasks such as surface preparation, deburring, rust and paint removal, and edge treatment on metal and other hard materials. The 100 mm diameter makes the disc suitable for localized work and access to tighter areas while maintaining consistent contact with the workpiece.

Advantages

The braided zinc-coated wire offers extended service life compared with untreated wire and maintains consistent abrasive action over repeated use. The angular, cup-style arrangement ensures effective material removal with a controlled cutting profile, reducing the risk of gouging on flat surfaces when used correctly. Its compact 100 mm size improves maneuverability and control on small or intricate parts, and the design is compatible with standard angle grinder mounting specifications for easy attachment.

Suitable for

• Surface preparation of steel and other ferrous metals
• Removal of rust and old paint from metal components
• Deburring and edge rounding after cutting or welding
• Cleaning weld seams and removing scale
• Light stock removal and surface texturing on hard materials

Key specifications

• Disc type: braided cup/angled brush
• Brush material: zinc-coated steel wire
• Diameter: 100 mm
• Attachment: compatible with standard angle grinder mounting systems (check tool spindle size)
• Intended use: mechanical cleaning, deburring, rust and paint removal, edge treatment
• Suitable operating speed: follow tool and brush manufacturer recommendations

How to use

Mount the brush disc on a compatible angle grinder according to the grinder manufacturer’s instructions. Verify that the brush is securely fixed and that the tool’s spindle speed does not exceed the brush’s safe operating speed. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including eye protection, gloves, and respiratory protection when removing paint or rust. Use light, steady pressure and keep the disc moving to avoid creating grooves or overheating the workpiece. Allow the brush to perform the cutting action rather than forcing it; back off pressure when approaching edges or thin sections.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the brush before each use for damaged or loose wire strands and replace it if signs of excessive wear appear. Keep sparks and debris away from flammable materials. For optimal results on delicate surfaces, test on a small area first and adjust pressure and speed accordingly. Store the brush in a dry place to prevent corrosion of the wire coating.
