Wire Wheel Brush
A Wire Wheel Brush is a circular tool used primarily for cleaning, deburring, edge blending, and surface finishing. It consists of a hub, typically made of metal, into which metal wires are inserted, forming a wheel shape. The wires can be made of different materials like carbon steel, stainless steel, or brass, and come in various thicknesses. The wire tips provide abrasive action when the brush is spun at high speeds, usually by attaching it to a power tool such as a bench grinder, angle grinder, or drill.

- Rust and Paint Removal: It effectively removes rust, old paint, and other coatings from metal surfaces.
