Tapered Polishing Mop Spindle Arbors

We stock tapered spindles for soft centred wheels such as polishing mops.

Tapered threaded spindles are used for quick and easy mounting of polishing wheels and mops. They can also be used for other soft centred wheels including stripping discs and unitised wheels (especially softer grades). The thread runs in the counter direction to to the normal rotation of the machine, ensuring that the wheel tightens on in use. We have a small tapered spindle for use in drill chucks and a larger ones with 22mm hex shanks for machine use. One has a female M14 thread for use on suitable fixed machine such as bench polishers or bench grinders, with a suitable male threaded adaptor end on the spindle.
