Simplify your lightweight metal conditioning work with this easy to use, durable and spark-free 3" Makita wire brush, designed for working with your 4.5" angle grinder or any angle grinder with standard 5/8" drill
However, unlike a coated abrasive, a wire brush is designed for conditioning metal surfaces and is not an accessory for removing metals
Ideal for light corrosion, rust and paint removal
Keep the brushes at an angle of no more than 5 degrees in light, constant pressure ensures full wire workpiece contact and maximum wire life
Incorrect angles or excessive pressure allow the wires to be heated, tired, and break prematurely, while also as a blooming of the wires and the "moan" of the angle grinder can occur from the excessive load
Carbon steel brushes should only work on carbon steel to avoid cross contamination in certain applications such as stainless steel/stainless steel
