Description
Overview
This 5-pound steel-wool reel supplies a continuous ribbon of low-carbon steel wool on a cardboard core. The approximately 4-inch-wide, 1/2-inch-thick ribbon can be portioned for cleaning or surface-preparation work instead of using preformed pads.
Features
- Continuous reel format for repeated shop tasks.
- Low-carbon steel wool provides a cutting/planing abrasive action.
- Cardboard core keeps the ribbon organized.
Specifications
- Part reference: R5-1
- Reel weight: 5 lb
- Ribbon width: Approximately 4 in
- Ribbon thickness: Approximately 1/2 in

Applications
Use portions of the reel for a compatible cleaning or finishing process. Select the required abrasive grade for the material and test before working across a visible surface.
Selection and Use
- The ribbon dimensions describe the wool strip, not the outside diameter of the reel.
- Confirm the grade on the supplied reel for finish-critical work; this listing does not provide a grade selector.
- Steel wool can mark a surface. Do not rely on the older claim that it does not scratch like other abrasives.
