Added layers of dense grains well suited for general purpose grinding and stock removal. Durable use on ferrous, non-ferrous, stainless steels, alloys and non-metallics. Ideal for mild steels and aluminum.
Overlapping layers of coated abrasives wear down to expose new cutting surfaces, allowing extended use of flap discs and much more control and comfort than rigid grinding wheels. The profile of flap discs, either flat faced (Type 27) or angle faced (Type 29) controls the amount of leverage applied to surfaces. Type 27 flap discs are better for finesse and extended use, whereas Type 29 discs are much more aggressive. Standard density discs provide less flap compression, best suited for stock removal and rough shaping. High density discs utilize more flaps, prolonging life, and are less compressed, allowing limited conformability to the workpiece.
