Polishing Accessories
These include an impregnated polishing point
and an impregnated polishing wheel for
bringing metal surfaces to smooth finish; a felt
polishing tip and felt polishing wheel, and cloth
polishing wheel, all used for polishing plastics,
metals, jewelry and small parts. Also included
in this group is a polishing compound (No. 421)
for use with the felt and cloth polishers.
Polishing points make a very smooth surface,
but a high luster is obtained using felt or cloth
wheels and polishing compound. For best
results polishing accessories should be
used at speeds not greater than 15,000
RPM.
No polishing compound is needed when using
the 425 Polishing Wheel.

sander, a tiny drum which fits into the Rotary
Tool and makes it possible to shape wood,
smooth fiberglass, sand inside curves and
other difficult places, and other sanding jobs.
You replace the sanding bands on the drum as
they become worn and lose their grit. Bands
come in fine and coarse grades. Flapwheels
grind and polish flat or contoured surfaces.
They are used most effectively as a finishing
sander after heavier surface sanding and
material removal is completed. Flapwheels
come in fine and coarse grades. Buffs are a
great finishing accessory for cleaning and light
sanding. They work effectively on metal, glass,
wood, aluminum and plastics. Coarse and
medium buffs are sold together. 1/8" shank.
Grinding Wheel
Use for deburring, removing rust, and general
purpose grinding. Use with Mandrel #402.
Cutting Wheels
These thin discs of emery or fiberglass are
used for slicing, cutting off and similar
operations. Use them for cutting off frozen bolt
heads and nuts, or to reslot a screw head
which has become so damaged that the
screwdriver won't work in it. Fine for cutting
BX cable, small rods, tubing, cable and cutting
rectangular holes in sheet metal.
