Abrasive Flap Disc GEKO 125x22 mm A80 for Angle Grinders

Abrasive Flap Disc GEKO 125x22 mm A80 for Angle Grinders is a flap-type abrasive wheel designed for metalworking tasks with handheld angle grinders. The disc combines overlapping abrasive flaps that wear progressively to expose fresh grit, providing controlled material removal and a consistent surface finish. With a 125 mm diameter and 22 mm bore, A80 grit offers medium-coarse cutting action suitable for grinding, smoothing welds and preparing metal surfaces prior to finishing.

Advantages

The flap construction ensures even wear and prolonged disc life while maintaining cutting efficiency. A80 abrasive grit balances material removal rate and surface quality, allowing both stock removal and blending of weld seams. The 125 mm size is compatible with most 5" angle grinders, offering good access to edges and flat surfaces. The disc is suitable for use on steel and other ferrous metals, providing reliable rust removal and deburring performance.

Suitable for

• Grinding and blending weld seams on steel structures
• Deburring cut edges and fabricated parts
• Rust and scale removal from metal surfaces
• Surface preparation before painting or coating
• Shaping and smoothing flat and slightly contoured metal workpieces

Key specifications

• Disc type: abrasive flap disc with overlapping abrasive flaps
• Diameter: 125 mm
• Bore/hole diameter: 22 mm
• Abrasion grit: A80 (medium-coarse)
• Suitable material: steel and other ferrous metals
• Typical use: grinding, finishing, deburring, rust removal, surface preparation

How to use

Mount the flap disc on a compatible angle grinder with a 22 mm arbor and ensure the tool is disconnected from power while fitting. Use appropriate grinder guards and secure the workpiece before starting. Operate the grinder at the manufacturer’s recommended speed range for the disc, apply light to moderate pressure, and move the disc steadily across the workpiece to avoid gouging. Allow the abrasive flaps to wear naturally to expose fresh grit; avoid excessive side pressure that could overheat or damage the disc.

Usage recommendations

Always wear suitable personal protective equipment such as eye protection, hearing protection, gloves and a dust mask. Use compatible speed-rated grinders, check the disc for damage before use, and replace the disc if cracks or excessive wear are detected. For best results on weld blending and surface preparation, start with consistent, overlapping passes and finish with lighter strokes to achieve a uniform surface.
