| 3M introduces air-powered die grinders |
|
The range offers two motor options and is designed to work with 3M abrasives and accessories.
It includes four models with a 1hp high-torque air motor, with a choice of 8,000, 12,000, 18,000 and 20,000 maximum revolutions per minute.
Three smaller versions for greater accessibility are available with 0.5hp motors.
Featuring a compact design, the die grinders have built-in safety features, including an adjustable exhaust that allows airflow to be directed away from the operator in any preferred direction.
For a secure grip with minimum effort, they are finished with 3M Greptile gripping material.
Partnered with 3M Scotch-Brite Radial Bristle Type C-RB-ZB, the air-powered die grinder is suited to metal, wood, plastics and composite materials for cleaning, finishing and deburring in applications where extreme conformability is required.
Paired with the Roloc+ Cut and Polish Flap Brush PF-ZR, it can be used on wood and metal to provide satin finishing and the light deburring of larger components where the machine is taken to the part.
3M"s Abrasive Systems Division offers a complete range of air-powered tools for cutting, grinding, blending and finishing.
