Professional 7” Carbide Cup Wheel – 7/8” Arbor – Rubber Remover
This heavy-duty 7” carbide cup wheel is designed for aggressive rubber removal and surface stripping on concrete. Built with durable carbide cutting points, it is a strong choice for contractors needing fast removal of rubber residue, adhesives, and other soft or gummy surface materials that can quickly load up traditional diamond tools.
Key Features
-
Carbide cutting surface: Built with tough carbide cutting points for aggressive removal of rubber and other soft surface contaminants.
-
Designed for rubber removal: Ideal for stripping rubber build-up, adhesive residue, mastic, and similar materials from concrete surfaces.
-
7/8” arbor: Fits compatible hand grinders using a standard 7/8” arbor setup for a secure and reliable connection.
-
Heavy-duty body: Made for durability, balance, and dependable performance in demanding surface prep applications.
-
7” diameter: Covers more surface area efficiently while still allowing good control on hand-held grinders.
Applications
Suitable for removing rubber coatings, rubber residue, mastics, adhesives, and other soft surface materials from concrete. Ideal for surface preparation before re-coating, repair work, or follow-up grinding with a diamond cup wheel.
How to Use
- Confirm the tool is suitable for the material being removed and that your grinder accepts a 7/8” arbor cup wheel.
- Mount the cup wheel securely onto the grinder using the proper arbor hardware.
- Run the grinder at a steady speed and keep the tool moving in smooth passes to avoid digging into the surface.
- Let the carbide do the work. Avoid excessive pressure, especially when removing soft or gummy materials.
Tips & Tricks
- For best performance, pair with a quality dust shroud and vacuum setup when possible to help control debris.
- Check the grinder’s spindle, flange, and bearings before use. Wobble can lead to uneven wear and reduced removal efficiency.
- If residue remains after removal, follow up with an appropriate diamond grinding tool to further clean and refine the surface.
- Test in a small area first when working over unknown materials to confirm removal speed and surface profile.
