Forney 72725 Wire Wheel Brush, Coarse Crimped with 1/4-Inch Hex Shank, 1-1/2-Inch-by-.012-Inch, Grey Metal

I was hesitant on this purchase, for one simple reason, wire wheels just seem to spread out and fall apart on me... I was surprised when I used this for about 20 minutes straight, with moderate pressure on it, showing only minor fraying afterward... I used this item in a drill to remove baked on powder coat from my Oklahoma joe wood smoker... There was only about a half inch rim around the edges that needed to be taken down to bare metal, if this item would have frayed out, it would have seriously scratched the heck out of unwanted places on my grill...

OMGoodness...I have used larger diameter wire brushes for 4 decades but now see the error of my ways. I ordered both the course and medium smaller diameter wire wheels and they made short work of cleaning the I.D. of my suspension bushing carrier. I had to remove all the old rubber after "burning" out the majority. I also used this wheel to clean the outside of some antique sawhorse brackets and the small diameter wheel got ito more nooks and crannys than I though possible. Excellent quality at a affordable price.

Good quality and very well made. Doesn't fall apart and shed shards like cheap ones

I clean rim with. They are small, but they work great.

Works fine

the shaft spins and the wheel slips, not attached very well

Just a wheel

Good wire wheels for cleaning dirt/rust.

This little tool is perfect for small or hard to reach area. But can work on larger surface too. It's very sturdy, despite its size. You dont have to apply much pressure. Make sure to wear a mask and protective glasses because the dust it produce is super fine and volatile. Forget that old wire brush, this will save you lots of time and effort at a small cost.

I had a little bit of rust in my fenders of my car. This worked very well to remove the rust and strip the area all the way down to bare metal. It held up really well and has plenty of life left.

nice
