Mercer Industries 187010 Crimped Grinders Review

Total waste of money. Terrible design, the wires fly off and get stuck in something unprotected. In all I spent about an hour on metal removing paint and had to stop because there was nothing left of the wires. Almost all flew away, half getting stuck in my hands, going through my clothes and digging into my skin.

Immediately blow the retaining ring and a set of wire bristles all over the patio. I was pretty sure one of them was rated for a higher speed than my grinder could handle, it didn't even get up to speed and it was only 2 (out of 5 speeds). I buy a pickup magnet and spend time sweeping pavers and cleaning wires so my kids can run around the yard again.

wires don't bend or curl like other wheels so even with careful use the wires in this tool will shed. After this wheel was used in a lighter fabric shirt, wires were built into both the arm and torso. The last one was deep enough to be pulled out with tweezers. The bristles in better designed/fluted wheels usually wear down and don't move like full length arrows. Buyers should beware of this bike.
