4 Pack Knotted Wire Wheel Brush for Angle Grinders, WENORA Wire Brush for 4 1/2 Angle Grinder with 5/8 Inch Threaded Arbor, with 5/8 Inch Arbor for Heavy Cleaning Rust, for Grinder

I wouldn’t recommend these for cleaning up welds because they are too course and slightly cupped. They did a good job of cleaning rust off the truck frame before undercoating though.

Seem to be durable and long lasting with a little breakage to be expected and with a good amount of down pressure these clean pretty fast. I agree it is a given- always wear eye protection with any wire wheel especially considering that these are somewhat expendable, and it may be a while- but they will eventually be worn down to knubs. Fits my angle grinder and tightened on easily and they handle a lot of down pressure when using. Good- coarse grind- cleaners.

This fit my angle grinder perfectly. The threads engaged well and the wheel fit nicely within the guard. I used it to clean up an old cast steel anvil. The wheel cleaned off the old rust , grime, and paint and left a polished finish with very little effort. The wire did not come loose or fall apart like some cheap wheels. At less than $5.00 each these are a great deal. Highly recommended.

These screw onto my Dewalt angle grinder perfectly and do a great job at removing rust and other materials from surfaces that I need to be cleaned up. The braided wires last longer and are stiffer than the wheels that do not have the braided wires. I will never go back to non-braided wire wheels again as these last longer and remove more surface material quicker. I also like to use these wheels on my welds to kind of clean up the spatter and some of the burn marks.

Heavy duty wire wheel for heavy paint and rust removal. Instead of single wires which can fly off when brushing these heads have many twisted wires which holds them together and lets you really get after the rust. They screw onto the threaded shaft of the grinder. If your grinder has a guard around the wheel make sure it can accept a 4 1/2 wide attachment. These are rated up to 12,500 RPM but I cant imagine anyone needing to run them that fast. They clean surfaces pretty aggressively.

These wire wheels are pretty hard to mess up. After just a few seconds in my 4 1/2 in it took the rust off an old piece of tube steel I had laying around, the old grease/dirt/rust buildup off an old 3/4 ton shock, and the paint off a 55 gal drum lid. I say that, however to be honest Im surprised I dont have any wires sticking out of me after looking at the wheel after the fact. A number of wires seem to of come loose and could be removed with minimal issue or force. They get the job done but I question the longevity.

Used these wheels to sand down and clean a stock trailer for pain prep. They definitely held up and there’s lots of life left in them. Absolutely with the money.

The way these are made allows you to use them horizontal or vertical and because they use a heavier wire than on the wire wheels I have used. Cup wheels flair out, these maintain shape and regular wire wheels dont like side loading, these dont seem to mind and work well doing it. So far I havent seen any shedding of wire from the bristles but that dont mean it wont happen. Wear your eye protection and gloves.

I thought that I was purchasing flat wheels not cupped ones. All my fault!
