Encaps Wire Wheel - Shark

The Shark 13979 Encapsulated Wire Wheel is engineered for demanding automotive and industrial surface preparation tasks. Designed for professional technicians, this wire wheel provides efficient and consistent material removal, making it an essential tool for cleaning, deburring, and preparing various surfaces before welding, painting, or assembly. Its robust construction ensures reliable performance and extended operational life in challenging workshop environments.

Key Features

• Encapsulated Wire Design: Features a durable polymer or rubber encapsulation around the wire bristles, which reduces wire breakage, extends wheel life, and provides more aggressive and controlled cutting action compared to traditional wire wheels.
• Professional-Grade Construction: Manufactured with high-quality steel wire and a sturdy hub for maximum durability and resistance to wear under heavy use.
• Efficient Surface Preparation: Effectively removes rust, scale, paint, slag, and old gaskets from metal surfaces, ensuring a clean and prepared substrate.
• Consistent Performance: The encapsulated design maintains wire integrity, delivering a uniform finish and consistent cleaning power throughout the wheel's lifespan.
• Versatile Compatibility: Designed for use with angle grinders and other compatible power tools, offering broad application flexibility.

Applications

The Shark 13979 Encapsulated Wire Wheel is ideal for a range of professional applications, including:

• Automotive Restoration & Repair: Preparing vehicle frames, chassis components, wheel hubs, and engine parts by removing rust, undercoating, and paint.
• Welding Preparation: Cleaning weld seams, removing slag, and preparing metal surfaces for optimal weld adhesion.
• Industrial Maintenance: Surface conditioning, deburring, and cleaning of machinery, equipment, and structural steel.
• Gasket Removal: Effectively stripping old gasket material and sealants from engine blocks, cylinder heads, and other component mating surfaces.
