Review on 60Pcs Stainless Steel Wire Brushes Wheel Cup Pen Cleaning Brush Set For Dremel Die Grinder Rotary Tools - Westmell Polishing Attachment Kit (1/8In Shank) by Alfred Friedrich

Revainrating 4 out of 5

MUST USE ON LOW SPEED!

I originally purchased basically the same set of these for my rotary Dremel from a different manufacturer and sent them back in disgust after blowing through 20 of them in about 15 minutes. The mistake I made was using them on the highest speed setting, during which the tiny wires fly out and stick in everything, your skin and clothes and anything that will hold them, and the whole wheel would wear out and be useless in about 2 minutes. They are a nightmare to get out of clothes as you have to hand-pull them out one by one. When I received this set I put the speed setting on my Dremel down to 4, instead of the 10 I was originally using, and it worked pretty good. There were a couple wires that I could feel flying out but one wire wheel lasted for the entire mini project I was working on removing rust from small mechanical parts. So remember, to get the most out of these USE A LOW SPEED SETTING!

Pros
  • about 95% as good as the Dremel branded items. But sure a lot cheaper.
Cons
  • Cheap and last about 30 seconds on metal before shredding the steel wires into you and your clothes.
