Wire wheel brush Vorel 06979, diameter 15 cm, 1 pc

Wire wheel brush Vorel 06979 with a 15 cm diameter is an accessory for grinders and bench tools designed to remove rust, paint and scale from metal surfaces. Supplied as a single piece, the brush has a round wheel shape with wire filaments arranged to provide surface conditioning and light material removal on steel and iron workpieces. It is intended for preparing joints, cleaning weld seams and removing loose coatings prior to painting or further treatment.

Advantages

The wire wheel brush provides consistent contact with curved and flat metal surfaces, enabling efficient removal of corrosion and paint without excessive gouging. Its 15 cm diameter balances coverage and control for handheld grinders and bench-mounted tools. The construction offers stable rotation at typical tool speeds and supports repeated use for surface preparation tasks on ferrous materials.

Suitable for

• Removing rust and old paint from steel or iron parts
• Cleaning weld seams and preparing joints for welding or painting
• Surface conditioning and light deburring of ferrous workpieces
• Preparing metal surfaces before coating or adhesive bonding

Key specifications

• Brush type: wire wheel with radial filaments
• Diameter: 15 cm
• Shape: round wheel
• Material compatibility: steel and iron
• Quantity: 1 piece

How to use

Mount the wire wheel brush securely on a compatible grinder or bench tool according to the tool manufacturer's instructions, ensuring the arbor size and mounting method match. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment including eye protection, gloves and hearing protection. Start the tool at low speed to check balance, then increase to the recommended operating speed. Apply the rotating brush to the workpiece with moderate, even pressure; avoid excessive force that can damage the substrate or the brush. Move the brush across the surface in overlapping passes until the desired level of cleaning or conditioning is achieved. After use, stop the tool and allow the brush to come to a complete stop before setting it down or changing accessories.

Usage recommendations

Use on clean, dry metal surfaces for best results. For painted surfaces, remove loose flakes first to prevent rapid wear. Inspect the brush regularly for wire breakage or imbalance and replace when significant wear reduces performance or safety. Avoid use on non-ferrous metals where aggressive wire brushes may cause excessive material removal or discoloration.
