The Zirconia Flap Disc Range is designed for grinding, stock removal, blending and surface finishing on mild steel and stainless steel. Its high-quality zirconia abrasive provides a practical balance of cutting performance and service life for structural work, steel fabrication, welding and general metalworking applications.
Each disc features a Type 29 conical profile with a 15° working angle, providing a more aggressive cutting action than a flat disc while maintaining good operator control. The fibreglass backing gradually wears as the abrasive flaps are consumed, helping maximize usable disc life and maintain consistent performance.
