Thanks Phill, about to do this myself, well worth reiterating safety, these things chuck out wires like crazy, can't be too careful ! Also worth noting that although brassed, most wheels are steel and quite hard so beware what you use them on !

Make sure you install the nut with the flat side facing inward.

I do exactly as you do but there’s barely any thread left for the bolt on the wire wheel side? It’s practically the same bench grinder and wire wheel?

I got a 6" for my grinder and when I tried it, I couldn't get it to work. It turns out that, as you say, when they are new, wires stick out to the sides. I put a spacer in to move it away from the shield as the bolts for the toolrest was jamming them on start-up. I will remove it as soon as those side wires get worn down or knocked out. It wasn't a cheap wheel either, an Abracs, £16

Hey I got one for my angle grinde... but it don't have anything that goes over the actual jut to secure it.. and even if there was there is no room.... I'm stressed and idk what to do

Aren't you worried about blunting those files and rasps?

[pleappleappleap]

Sigh. 12.7mm bore, huh? Why don't they just mark it 1/2"? That's what it is.

Not the best video. I can only get one side off. Are they both counterclockwise removal?
