Designed for 1/8" Arbor Hole Abrasive Points

Key fit details:

• Mandrel Size: #6 Point Mandrel

• Shank Diameter: 1/8" – fits most Dremel®-style and flex-shaft collets Brownells+2CRATEX+2

• Point Compatibility: Designed for CRATEX No. 11, 12, 14, and 15 points CRATEX+1

If you routinely run 1/8" arbor-hole rubberized abrasives, this #6 mandrel is the correct match to keep them spinning straight and true.

High-Speed Ready – Up to 25,000 RPM

CRATEX specifies a maximum safe speed of 25,000 RPM for its point mandrels (with 1/2" overhang or less), and the #6 is built to that standard. CRATEX+2Brownells Sverige+2

That rating supports:

• Aggressive cutting and blending with coarse and medium rubberized abrasives

• Smooth, controlled polishing with fine and extra-fine points at moderate speeds

• Reliable performance in both electric and pneumatic rotary tools when used correctly

Always operate within the lower of the recommended speeds for both the mandrel and the abrasive point, and use light working pressure for best finish and tool life. CRATEX+1

1/8" Shank – Drop-In Fit for Most Rotary Tools

Because the #6 mandrel features a 1/8" shank, it fits directly into:

• Dremel-type rotary tools

• Flex-shaft handpieces with 1/8" collets or chucks

• Many die grinders and micro-motors designed for 1/8" accessories Gesswein+2MidwayUSA+2

That means no adapters, no fuss—just insert, tighten, and get to work.

Secure Threaded End with Hex Nut Flange

To keep your abrasive point centered and secure, the CRATEX #6 Mandrel uses a precision threaded end and flange:

• Thread: No. 5-40 threaded post with hex nut flange CRATEX+2Nelson & Storm Tool Supply+2

• Designed to clamp No. 11, 12, 14, 15 CRATEX points firmly against the flange, reducing wobble and run-out CRATEX+2Bostwick Braun+2

This secure, concentric mounting is essential when you’re doing fine work on sear surfaces, feed ramps, rails, or delicate contours, where tool vibration can ruin the finish or your control.

Perfect for Gunsmithing, Metal Finishing & Detail Work

Retailers like Brownells and specialty abrasives suppliers consistently position these mandrels for precision finishing tasks in tight or intricate areas. MidwayUSA+3Brownells+3Brownells Sverige+3
