Nonwoven 60 Grit Flap Wheel Disc For Grinding 100x16mm custom

100x16mm Non-Woven Flap Disc | Green & Red Sanding Grinding Wheel for Polishing & Fine Finishing

Product Overview
Revolutionize your finishing process with our 100x16mm Non-Woven Flap Discs. Unlike traditional abrasive flap discs, these are constructed from resilient non-woven nylon fiber, infused with abrasive grains (Green with Silicon Carbide for non-ferrous metals; Red with Aluminum Oxide for steel). They are the ultimate tool for achieving a uniform satin finish, perfect for polishing, fine deburring, and final surface preparation without changing the material's dimensional integrity.

Key Features & Buyer-Centric Benefits

• Dual-Material Composition (Green & Red): Two specialized formulas for different applications. Benefit: The Green (Silicon Carbide) disc is ideal for non-ferrous metals, glass fiber, and plastics, providing a cool cut. The Red (Aluminum Oxide) disc offers superior durability on carbon steel, iron, and welds. This allows for precise material-specific finishing.

• Exceptional Flexibility & Conformability: The soft, non-woven nylon flaps easily compress and adapt. Benefit: Conforms perfectly to complex contours, curves, and irregular surfaces, ensuring a consistent finish on welds, corners, and stamped parts without gouging or altering critical tolerances.

• Non-Loading & Cool Cutting Action: The open, porous structure of the non-woven material resists clogging. Benefit: Significantly reduces heat buildup during operation, preventing workpiece burn-on and discoloration, especially on stainless steel and aluminum. It also minimizes dust accumulation, extending the disc's life.

• Smooth Transition from Grinding to Polishing: Provides a harmonious finish from start to end. Benefit: Effectively replaces the need for multiple tools or steps, seamlessly blending out coarse grind marks and progressing to a ready-to-paint or polished satin finish in one operation.

• Economical & Eco-Friendly: Durable and often reusable. Benefit: The disc can be cleaned with a wire brush or compressed air when loaded, restoring its cutting ability and offering a longer service life than many traditional alternatives, reducing waste and cost per use.

Intended Use & Applications
This versatile non-woven flap disc is engineered for a wide range of fine finishing and polishing applications:

• Metal Polishing: Achieving a uniform satin or brushed finish on stainless steel, aluminum, and other metals.

• Deburring & Edge Blending: Perfect for removing sharp burrs and blending edges after machining or cutting on both ferrous and non-ferrous metals.

• Weld Finishing: Smoothing and cleaning weld seams without removing significant base material.

• Surface Preparation: Ideal for creating a perfect surface profile for painting, coating, or adhesion.

• Perfect For: Metal fabricators, welders, automotive restorers, and anyone requiring a high-quality final finish.

Important Precautions

• Tool Compatibility & RPM: Ensure your angle grinder or tool has a 5/8"-11 spindle and DO NOT exceed the maximum RPM marked on the disc. These discs often require lower RPMs than standard grinding discs.

• Wear Appropriate PPE: Always wear safety glasses, a face shield, gloves, and a respirator. The non-woven material can generate fine dust.

• Apply Light Pressure: Let the disc do the work. Applying excessive pressure can over-compress the flaps, reduce effectiveness, and cause overheating.

• Avoid Sharp Edges & Heavy Stock Removal: This is a finishing tool, not for aggressive grinding. Do not use it on sharp, 90-degree edges as it may tear the material.

• Clean for Longevity: Regularly clean the disc with a wire brush or compressed air during use to remove loaded material and maintain its cutting performance.
