125mm Quick Change type Flap Disc

Applications of Flap Disc:

Flap disc is used for deburring,Snagging, Rough and medium grinding of welded seams in one operation, Edge grinding,Rust remova,Working of fillet welds,Beveling. While Flap Discs perform best on stainless steel, their versatility allows them to work effectively on other materials such as carbon stell, aluminum, wood and plastic.

Backing Plate Of Flap disc:

Flap discs come with aluminum, fiberglass or plastic backing plates. Fiberglass is the most common. Aluminum is sometimes chosen due to no potential fiberglass dust hazards. Plastic backing is becoming more popular with some manufacturers suggesting that the plastic backing can be trimmed to increase working life.

Shape Of Flap disc:

Flap discs are broken down into flat and angle face. Following grinding wheel terminology flat discs are type 27 while angle discs are type 29. Typical angle faced flap wheels are about 10°. Angle faced discs are more aggressive and are more suited to stock removal while flat faced discs are better on flat surfaces and will produce a more consistent finish.

Density Of Flap disc:

Flap discs are available in regular and high density. High density discs, often called jumbo discs, have more flaps and are thicker. Jumbo discs tend to be a little softer and are therefore not as aggressive. Jumbo discs will last longer due to the extra abrasive.

Advantages of Flap disc:

1.Flap disc with Lightweight design reduces operator fatigue

2.East to use - very little surface pressure required

3.Cool cutting permits light contouring and prevents burning

4. Flap disc with Longer life: Withstands wear up to 10 to 20 times longer than conventional fibre discs due to overlapping flap construction

5.Aggressive removal of metal for flap disc. Equal to Type 27 depressed center wheels with greater safety (does not require tool safety guard)

6.Consistent performance as new granules are continually exposed during the life of the product

7.One-step grind and finish reduces down time and finishing costs

8.Grinding angle of conical shape provides optimum contact between work piece and disc surface

9.Tough construction allows for aggressive edge grinding
