Polishing disc Proxxon PM 100 — shank Ø10 mm, length 320 mm

The Proxxon PM 100 polishing disc — shank Ø10 mm, length 320 mm is an accessory for rotary and hand-held tools designed for surface polishing, finishing, deburring and smoothing on metals, plastics and composite materials. It is intended for workshop and hobby use where controlled polishing action and compatibility with 10 mm shank tool holders are required. The accessory suits standard brushes and inserts up to 102 mm diameter and is built to work with polishing pastes and a variety of polishing wheels.

Advantages

The polishing disc is constructed with load-bearing side parts made of aluminium and milled bearing seats for reduced vibration and quiet running. A long, ball-bearing mounted main shaft provides stable support and extended distance between polishing discs for versatile use. Protective guards are adjustable to enable cleaner work with polishing compounds. The arbor is screw-mounted and removable to allow use of different accessories. The design supports firm mounting in horizontal or vertical positions.

Suitable for

• Polishing and finishing of metal components
• Removing burrs and smoothing plastic and composite parts
• Surface preparation before painting or coating
• Workshop and hobby polishing tasks requiring a 10 mm shank accessory

How to use

Fit the polishing disc into a compatible rotary or hand-held tool with a 10 mm chuck or collet and secure it according to the tool manufacturer’s instructions. Install the chosen polishing wheel or insert on the removable arbor and adjust the protective guards to shield surrounding areas and contain polishing paste. Operate the tool at appropriate speed and apply gentle, consistent pressure during polishing to avoid overheating the workpiece. Change wheels or accessories as needed by unscrewing the polishing arbor and replacing with the desired implement.

Usage recommendations

Use the Proxxon PM 100 with suitable polishing pastes and follow the speed and pressure guidelines for the material being worked. For best results, start with a stiffer wheel for initial deburring, then switch to a softer muslin wheel for final finishing. Ensure bearings and mounting are checked periodically to maintain quiet, low-vibration operation.
