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

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.

for the cost of one from a local big box store you get 4 wire wheels in this set. Granted you get what you pay for so the overall quality is lower on each one. That being said they still work and do exactly what is needed. Like all wire brushes the wires wear and break off or can just come out and they do so with enough force to stick into clothing or skin. But these wheels are great to remove rust, paint and clean up welds

On par with the guys down at the harbor; a few cents cheaper. These are wear items and seem to stand up to abuse pretty well. I have been grinding the rust off the old work trucks. I like the slight cant of the bristles so it’s not quite a cup and I’m not quite a wheel. Seems to make it a little more maneuverable in tight spaces with odd shapes.

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.

Ease of use for wall paint scraping

Got this kit to remove loose paint and rust on a steel square tube Wrought Iron style fence, mounted this first wire wheel on our Milwaukee cordless grinder and have been diligently stripping paint layer after paint layer along with spots of rush and some slag on our welds from installation. These wire wheels are truly heavy duty and very reasonably priced. Ive ground for hours now and the first wheel is still going strong!

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.
