About this product
Product Description
The DEWALT DW49702 is a 4-inch stainless steel wire wheel designed for aggressive surface preparation on metal, masonry, and fabricated components. Built with a 15-row shoe handle configuration, this wire wheel delivers consistent contact across curved and irregular surfaces. The stainless steel fill resists corrosion and maintains wire integrity during extended use, making it a reliable choice for welders, pipefitters, ironworkers, and general metal fabricators who need repeatable results on surface cleaning and rust removal tasks.
This wire wheel is suited for surface preparation work in industrial, commercial, and field settings. Typical applications include weld seam cleaning, rust and mill scale removal, paint stripping, and surface conditioning on pipe, structural steel, and fabricated assemblies. The shoe handle design allows controlled hand-tool use in areas where power brushing is not practical or accessible.
Key Features
- 4-inch diameter for efficient surface contact on pipes and curved workpieces
- 15-row configuration provides consistent, even wire coverage across the work surface
- Stainless steel wire fill resists corrosion and contamination on stainless or alloy steel substrates
- Shoe handle design allows controlled hand-held use in tight or irregular spaces
- Sold individually (each)
Compatibility
Designed as an OEM-style hand wire wheel for general surface preparation tasks requiring a shoe handle wire brush configuration.
Installation Notes
Wire wheel brushes of this type are typically used by welders, pipefitters, and metal fabricators as hand tools requiring no power source. Always wear appropriate PPE including safety glasses and cut-resistant gloves before use, as wire bristles can shed under load. Inspect the wire fill for broken or loose wires before each use and replace if damage is found. Follow applicable worksite safety protocols for surface preparation operations.
