80366 - Pferd 5-Inch Crimped Stainless Steel Wire Wheel Brush, 5/8 Arbor

Keep Your Stainless Welds Clean

When welding stainless steel, the finishing tools you use are just as important as your filler metal. The Pferd 80366 5-inch Crimped Stainless Steel Wire Brush is an essential accessory for any welder working with stainless alloys. Using a carbon steel brush on stainless steel can embed iron particles into the surface, leading to rust streaks later on. This brush is made with high-grade stainless steel wire to ensure your welds remain contaminant-free and corrosion-resistant.

Smooth Action for Superior Finishes

The crimped wire construction of this wheel brush offers a softer, more flexible brushing action compared to twisted knot wheels. This makes it the perfect choice for lighter cleaning tasks, such as removing heat tint (blueing) from TIG welds or cleaning up the heat-affected zone without gouging the base metal. The 5-inch diameter and 5/8-inch arbor make it compatible with many bench grinders, allowing you to bring small parts to the tool for quick cleaning. It is durable, balanced, and built to withstand the rigors of a busy welding shop.

Why Choose Crimped Wire?

• Flexibility: The wires bend slightly to follow the contours of your workpiece, cleaning uneven surfaces effectively.
• Finish Quality: Leaves a smoother, finer finish compared to the aggressive scratch pattern of knot wire brushes.
• Safety: Pferd brushes are balanced to minimize vibration, making them safer and more comfortable to use.
