Merit® PowerFlex® 08834193320 Standard Density Coated Abrasive Flap Disc, 4-1/2 in dia, 80 Grit, Medium Grade, Zirconia Alumina Abrasive, Type 27 Flat Disc

Flap discs are versatile grinding and finishing tools with three main components - backing plate, adhesive, and abrasive flaps. The flaps wear during use continually exposing new abrasive grain. The different variations of the components provide a variety of applications, ranging from heavy stock removal to blending to finishing. Flap discs are designed for portable grinder applications and can combine the 2-step stock removal and finishing operations of depressed center wheels and fiber discs into one operation.

• Quality zirconia alumina abrasive for good cut rate and life
• Type 27 flat discs are designed to be used at a 0 to 15 deg angle on flat surfaces for blending and smooth finishing
• Fiberglass resin backing plates are the most popular due to high strength, lightweight and ability to absorb vibration
• Heavy polyester flaps provide durability and enhanced stock removal
• High density jumbo flaps discs are the choice when working on uneven or curved surfaces, as well as finer grit blending
