Designed to keep dust off the workpiece, the Standard Abrasives™ Aluminum Oxide Flexible Flap Wheel produces a straight line finish on inside diameters or contours. Use this wheel to deburr edges, remove flash, and smooth parting lines. A wide range of diameters with different attachment styles enables consistent coverage on many different workpieces.
We offer our Flexible Flap Wheel in smaller diameters for attachment to hand-held tools, and larger diameters for off-hand applications. Some power tools may require an additional reducer bushing or adapter for attaching the wheel.
A broad selection of grades is available to deburr edges, remove flash and parting lines, blend machine marks, apply a linear scratch pattern, or provide light blending, cleaning, or polishing.
Small Wheels Access Inner Radiuses and Maintain Maximum Control
Our wheels with smaller diameters provide access to smaller and harder-to-access inner radiuses or contours on irregular parts. They are especially useful for deburring or finishing the insides of tubing. For these smaller areas, flexible flap wheels provide a softer touch than rolls or bands, which are suitable when more aggressive material removal is required, and produce a softer finish than standard flap wheels.
Our smaller wheels are 1-3" in diameter have a 1/4" steel mandrel or a 1/4"-20 threaded steel shank to enable fast yet secure product changeouts. In each case the steel attachment runs the full width of the wheel center, reducing chatter in the rotation. As a result, you get a smoother finish and the operator maintains greater control of the tool with less pressure.
Large Wheels Supply Broader Coverage
For larger hand tools or off-hand applications, we provide flap wheels in diameters from 3-1/2" to 8" with 1-2" widths. These sizes have a 5/8" or 1" center hole compatible with larger tool arbors. The larger wheels contain more flaps per wheel for faster cutting, increased productivity and longer life.
Durable Wheel, Fast Cut
Aluminum oxide is a popular choice among industrial professionals because of its versatility on different surfaces, fast cut-rate and long life. It is a tough, durable abrasive that self-fractures to expose fresh cutting edges in use, whereas traditional abrasives such as garnet quickly wear down with use. Aluminum oxide mineral is suitable for a wide variety of materials including ferrous and non-ferrous metals.
