Designed for deburring and blending metal surfaces inside elongated recesses, the United Abrasives 38332 Tapered Cartridge Roll combines a broad abrasive base with a narrowing tip for working along angled surfaces and internal contours. This 5/8" base diameter, 2" length, 60-grit premium aluminum oxide cartridge roll provides effective material removal for machining burrs, flash, and rough surface marks. Its full-taper shape allows more focused abrasive contact near corners and fillets, while the wider portion of the roll supports sanding along accessible side walls and recessed surfaces. The 60-grit construction makes it particularly useful for initial deburring and blending before progressing to finer abrasive grades.
United Abrasives uses a multi-layer, self-dressing construction that exposes fresh abrasive grain as each layer wears away, helping sustain cutting action during use. The 38332 features a 1/8" arbor opening and is listed with the 95103 cartridge roll mandrel in the manufacturer's catalog. Its 18,000 RPM maximum operating speed is an important consideration when choosing a compatible die grinder and mounting arrangement. The 2" working length offers additional abrasive contact along extended channels and recessed contours where adequate clearance is available. Suitable for ferrous metals, non-ferrous metals, stainless steel, and high-tensile steel, this configuration is supplied in a box of 100.

- Box quantity of 100 supports stocking and replenishment for ongoing metalworking operations.
Applications:
- Machined component deburring Removing rough edges and cutter marks from accessible recessed features and angled openings.
- Toolroom work Sanding tapered cavities, internal fillets, and elongated tooling contours before finer surface finishing.
- Metal fabrication Blending localized flash and surface irregularities along contoured metal edges and openings.
- Stainless steel and alloy steel processing Preparing recessed surfaces and removing minor-to-moderate burrs where abrasive access is limited.
- Machinery repair Cleaning up accessible channels, internal corners, and irregular metal surfaces during component refurbishment.
FAQs:
- Q: What distinguishes the United Abrasives 38332 from the 38333? A: Both models have a 5/8" base diameter, 2" length, 1/8" arbor opening, and 18,000 RPM maximum operating speed. The 38332 uses coarser 60-grit abrasive for greater material removal, while the 38333 uses 80 grit for a finer sanding pattern.
- Q: How does the 38332 compare with the 1/2" diameter 38326? A: Both models are 2" long and use 60-grit aluminum oxide abrasive with a 1/8" arbor opening. The 38332 has a wider 5/8" base diameter and an 18,000 RPM rating, while the 38326 has a 1/2" base diameter and a 26,000 RPM rating. Choose according to recess dimensions, desired abrasive contact, and tool speed.
- Q: What types of metal can be sanded with SKU 38332? A: United Abrasives lists ferrous and non-ferrous metals, stainless steel, and high-tensile steel as suitable materials. For stainless steel work, use dedicated abrasives when avoiding contamination from carbon steel is important.
- Q: Why select a tapered cartridge roll for internal contours? A: The narrowing shape helps operators place abrasive contact along angled surfaces, internal corners, and fillets. A straight cartridge roll may be preferable when uniform cylindrical contact is needed along parallel side walls.
- Q: What is the recommended mandrel for United Abrasives 38332? A: The manufacturer catalog identifies cartridge roll mandrel 95103. Confirm the mandrel's mounting instructions, shank compatibility, and operating-speed requirements before use.
- Q: Is the 38332 intended for final polishing? A: No. Its 60-grit abrasive is primarily useful for deburring and preliminary-to-intermediate sanding. A finer abrasive or additional finishing process may be required to achieve a smoother final appearance.
- Q: How is the 38332 packaged? A: United Abrasives part number 38332 is sold in a box containing 100 tapered cartridge rolls. Mounting accessory inclusion should be verified separately.
