Want To Select The Right Flap Disc?



If you are looking for flap discs, consider these points, and you’ll be able to choose the right disc.

Flap Wheel Shape
Flap discs are used mainly on the right angled grinders, and they are designed with hubs that allow work to be done on the face. Their angle provides a greater surface contact for stock removal on a flat surface. Flat flap discs are used on the flat surfaces, and they are the best choices for blending and smooth finishing and airfoil polishing.

Plate Material
The second thing that demands your attention is the backing plate you may use. All flap discs are a combination of abrasive flaps that are adhered to a rigid backing plate. Aluminum backing plates are the least popular. Read more

Abrasive Types & Shapes: Consider These Two Things When Choosing Flap Disc

Over the last few years, flap discs have become one of the fastest growing abrasives categories in metal fabrication. From a product performance perspective, they are ideal for removing fast stock and providing blending, grinding, and finishing at a lower cost. They are also good for cooler cutting with less gouging and burning. With all the benefits afforded by flap discs, it is vital to know how to choose the right one.   Here are the five pointers you need to consider when choosing flap disks for metal.  Shapes No doubt, flap disks are used on angle grinders to work at a shallow angle or even flat of the metal surface. The angle at which the disc is presented to the workpiece lets you know how aggressive the grinding action is required. To meet this, usually three types of flap disks are made: conical shaped discs, flat faced discs and flat faced discs with a flexible edge.   Flat Construction : Flat faced discs are generally required when it comes to finish...
