Grinding Wheel / Flap Disc Dedra 140 mm 15B045

Dedra 140 mm grinding/flap disc 15B045 is designed for surface finishing and controlled material removal with angle grinders. The disc combines abrasive flaps arranged around a central hub to deliver uniform stock removal, smoothing and blending on metal and other solid surfaces. It fits standard 140 mm mounting systems and is intended for manual grinding and finishing operations with portable angle grinders.

Advantages

The flap disc construction provides consistent cutting action while reducing chatter and vibration compared with single-sheet abrasive discs. Its radial arrangement of abrasive flaps allows for even wear and extended service life under moderate pressure. The 140 mm diameter offers a balance between reachable surface area and access to tighter spaces, and the disc is suitable for both light stock removal and blending tasks without aggressive gouging.

Suitable for

• Rust and paint removal from metal surfaces
• Deburring and edge rounding on welded joints
• Surface blending and smoothing prior to painting or coating
• Light stock removal and shaping of steel and other hard surfaces

Key specifications

• Diameter: 140 mm
• Disc type: flap (abrasive flaps around central hub)
• Intended tool: angle grinder (compatible with standard 140 mm mounting)
• Primary applications: surface finishing, material removal, deburring
• Suitable materials: steel and other solid metal surfaces; applicable to some non-metal solids depending on abrasive grade

How to use

Securely mount the flap disc on a compatible 140 mm angle grinder according to the grinder manufacturer's instructions. Use appropriate personal protective equipment including eye protection, gloves, and hearing protection. Start the grinder and apply the disc to the workpiece with steady, even pressure, maintaining a consistent angle to avoid gouging. Move the grinder across the surface in controlled passes until the desired finish or material removal is achieved. Allow the disc to cool periodically during extended use to prevent overheating.

Usage recommendations

For best results, match the disc's abrasive grade and backing hardness to the material and task: choose a coarser flap disc for faster stock removal and a finer one for smoothing and blending. Avoid excessive side pressure and follow the angle grinder's rated speed limits to maintain safety and disc integrity.
