Tackle Hard-To-Reach Areas
Scotch-Brite™ Star has six spindles attached to an eyelet. Made with nonwoven technology, the spindles are spongy, buoyant and flexible. Consequently, they can bend and move to accommodate the insides of metal tubes and pipes. Scotch-Brite™ Star comes in small sizes, with the smallest diameter being 1-1/2 inches and the largest diameter being 4 inches. The small size supplements the spongy spindles, helping the abrasive fit inside hard-to-reach areas. These stars lightly deburr and blend contours and ridges without gouging or marring the surface, helping to reduce scraps and rework. Stars may be used on a variety of metals: stainless steel, aluminum, carbon steel, cast iron, titanium and non-ferrous metals.Ease of Use
The Scotch-Brite™ Star may be used with 3M mandrel 944 (sold separately).The threaded attachments fasten to mandrel 944 for safe use on a die grinder. Scotch-Brite™ Star requires low pressure when used at correct operating speeds. [Reviewer please confirm].The abrasive is available in coarse (CRS) and very fine (VFN) grades. Use a coarse abrasive when refining a deep grind line/scratch or when a more aggressive scratch pattern is desired, and use a fine abrasive when a soft, fine scratch pattern is desired. Scotch-Brite™ Star comes in packs of 50 or 100 stars per case to minimize the need for ordering replacements and to help reduce operating costs.The Many Benefits of Open Web Abrasives
Nonwoven technology makes our Scotch-Brite™ industrial abrasives unique. A combination of fiber strands, resin, and abrasive mineral forms a thick, open web. The spring-like nature of the fibers responds to contours and effectively removes unwanted burrs, soils, and contaminants while maintaining the geometry of the workpiece, which in turn reduces rework and boosts productivity. Gaps in the web allow swarf to escape, so debris does not clog the mineral. Fibers in the web continually break down with use to reveal fresh mineral for exceptional consistency, superior cut performance, and extremely long service life. Scotch-Brite products not only enhance productivity, but also increase operator safety. By reducing the need for cleaning chemicals and pastes, and replacing wire brushes that can break off and cause injury. From aesthetic finishing to deburring and more, Scotch-Brite abrasives work fast and deliver consistent results, part after part.Scotch-Brite Star Model
The Scotch-Brite Star, 4 in A VFN LS, 25/Pac, 50 ea/Case is designed for blending and finishing tasks. This model stands out with its unique six-spindle design that fits inside hard-to-reach areas, making it ideal for internal diameters.
Its nonwoven technology provides flexibility and durability, allowing it to work effectively on various metals. The exact model name ensures you get the right abrasive tool for precise deburring and finishing jobs.
Very Fine Grade Options
This product is available in very fine (VFN) and coarse (CRS) grades, allowing you to choose the right finish for your project. The VFN grade is perfect when a soft, fine scratch pattern is needed without damaging the surface.
Using the correct grade helps reduce scrap and rework by blending contours and ridges smoothly. The 4-inch size complements the grade to reach inside metal tubing and piping effectively.
Four Inch Dimensions
The 4-inch diameter size of the Scotch-Brite Star fits well inside pipes and tubing, making it suitable for internal diameter work. Its small size combined with flexible spindles ensures it can access tight spaces with ease.
This dimension supports detailed deburring and finishing, especially on metals like stainless steel and aluminum. The size also helps maintain control and precision during use.
Pack Size Convenience
Each case contains 50 stars, packaged in 25 packs, which helps minimize the frequency of replacement orders. This pack size is convenient for maintaining a steady supply without overstocking.
Having 50 pieces per case supports continuous work and reduces downtime. It also helps manage operating costs by providing enough abrasives for multiple projects.
Attachment And Format
The Scotch-Brite Star uses the A VFN LS format, compatible with 3M mandrel 944 for easy attachment. This makes fastening the abrasive to die grinders straightforward and secure.
The open web design resists loading and prolongs service life. The spring-like spindles bend easily, fitting inside hard-to-reach areas while maintaining abrasive effectiveness.
