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

great for removing rust off steel pipes. they work great

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.

These wire wheels look good quality. Ill be using one later on and Ill update the review if it flies apart or anything like that. The one thing that is a little different about these is that the angle of the wire is less than the ones Ive been using. Im interested to see if that angle is good for getting into tighter spots.

These are rust eating wheels if you can stand the flying wire. BE SURE TO WEAR EYE PROTECTION WITH THESE WHEELS. A full face shield is best.

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.

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.

This is a really good wheel brush for stripping off rust in tight spaces where a stripping wheel wont work. The wheel brush works extremely well and makes short order of rust. What I do want to stress is that you must take the necessary safety precautions when you use these types of wheels - remember, these are strands of hard wire spinning at an extremely high speed and a wire will break off from time to time and will act like a dart, so it would be ideal to wear safety goggles and a face shield (Jackson Safety Maxview and Honeywell UVEX Bionic are 2 really good shields), long sleeve shirt, jeans, and boots (no flip-flops) - a welding apron would be ideal (it may seem like overkill, but safety first). As for the wheel brush, I cant recommend it enough - it just worked freakishly well and stripped out the rust ridiculously fast on the iron chairs and benches in my patio; they wound up looking like new. Its a really great wheel brush that works extremely well. Remember - safety first.

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.

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.

The wires angle down below the center disk, very helpful when brushing corners. They hold up well.
