Forney 72759 4-Inch x .020-Inch Thickness x 5/8-11 Threaded Knot Wire Wheel

Beeteam2557: I used this to strip a 36" Blackstone griddle for resurfacing and seasoning. Worked great. I had the entire top down to shiny metal in about 20'.

Amazon Customer: Very good for removing rust.... use as a step one for removing the rough not for the finishing touch.

Thomas N. Mackey: I am using this in a standard 4" angle grinder to clean my lawnmower blades prior to sharpening. This makes it easier to accurately balance them after they are sharp. This wire brush makes fast work of this task. I took a star off for durability because it appeared that the brush was wearing faster than I expected. But perhaps this was just the fragile ends of the wires coming in first use. Time will tell.

Robert O. Cox: Full Face shield. Use nothing less with this or Any wire wheel on a grinder. They will ALL toss out a wire every once in a while. Keep the guard on the grinder. Leather work gloves are a winner also.
Any wire wheel can toss a bristle that will sink well into your skin, or eye.
This one is medium aggressive and will work better after it wears a bit. It will take off skin as fat as rust if not better.
Work safley.

Jim: Wear safety equipment when using. In using the wheel to cleanup welds on a piece of 5/8" tubing there were quite a few wire bristles flying around. If used on flat surfaces, loose bristles might not be a large concern due to the fact that small pieces cause a more interrupted cleaning process and perhaps more strain on the bristles. Overall the wheel did the job when cleaning up the surface for painting. Will likely purchase more in the future.

Amazon Customer: I purchased a 27’ boat that was originally used in California. There was a LOT of corrosion on the trailer. I purchased this to remove the corrosion and then coat with a cold galvanizing compound. Only one of these did the trick.

Word of caution. Wear goggles. Towards the tail end of the project, one of the wires broke off and embedded 1/4” into my cheek. I was wearing safety glasses at the time because goggles kept filling up with sweat given the heat. I put the goggles on and finished off the job.

King_of_Cole: Used extensively on rusty wrought iron and it worked better than expected. If want to get rid of paint, rust and other debris, buy this now. Even at 11,000 RPM, the bristles stayed intact and did the job. It was easy to get right down to bare metal. NOTE: absolutely wear eye protection and gloves. An ounce of prevention blah, blah, blah!!

Kindle Customer: I ordered both the Forney 72759 Wire Wheel Brush and 72757 Wire Cup Brush for my Bosch angle grinder. When they arrived the build quality looked to be excellent but unfortunately although the arbors are marked as 5/8 -11inch thread they are oversize to the point that I could actually wiggle them onto and off of the grinder spindle. So I am returning them for refund. Too bad!
