Abrasives Grinding Flap Disc for Stainless Steel Applications

Advantages of Flap Discs and Flap Wheels

Flap discs and flap wheels offer the main advantage of being able to provide finer finishes than grinding wheels and can perform on uneven surfaces, but they also have several other benefits:

• Ability to vary pressure as needed to provide a coarser or smoother finish
• Cooler operation, which means you're less likely to leave scorch or heat marks
• Less vibration and fatigue for more comfortable operation
• Improved safety because there are no pieces to shatter or fly off
• Better finish with less gouging for improved appearance

Flap discs don't offer the same level of metal removal as standard grinding wheels, and they might wear out faster and cut more slowly, so it's important to weigh these advantages and disadvantages to determine if a flap disc or wheel is right for your job.
