Wire Wheels & Cups

Wire Wheels & Cups

Wire wheels and cups are an essential part of any automotive mechanic's toolkit. They are used to remove rust, paint, and other debris from metal surfaces. Wire wheels come in a variety of sizes and shapes, and can be used on both hand-held and power tools.

Types of Wire Wheels & Cups

There are two main types of wire wheels: twisted and spiral. Twisted wire wheels are made of a series of wires that are twisted together. Spiral wire wheels are made of a series of wires that are wound in a spiral pattern.

Wire wheels can also be made of different materials, including steel, brass, and nylon. Steel wire wheels are the most common type, and are best suited for removing rust and paint. Brass wire wheels are less abrasive than steel wire wheels, and are ideal for use on delicate surfaces. Nylon wire wheels are the least abrasive type of wire wheel, and are best suited for use on soft metals.

How to Use Wire Wheels & Cups

To use a wire wheel, first attach it to a power tool. Then, turn on the power tool and hold the wire wheel against the surface that you want to clean. Move the wire wheel in a circular motion until the surface is clean.

Be careful not to use too much pressure when using a wire wheel, as this can damage the surface. It is also important to wear safety glasses when using a wire wheel, as the wires can break off and fly into your eyes.
