Flap mounted grinding wheel Glob GLOB-SL-80506-VERYFINE 80 x 50 x 6 mm, abrasive grit 320–400, fiber backing

Flap mounted grinding wheel Glob GLOB-SL-80506-VERYFINE is a compact abrasive wheel with a fiber backing, measuring 80 x 50 x 6 mm and featuring a very fine abrasive grit in the 320–400 range. It is engineered for fine finishing, deburring and surface blending on metal, wood and composite materials. The wheel's construction uses overlapping abrasive flaps that conform to contours and allow controlled material removal when mounted on compatible handheld grinders or rotary tools with a suitable mandrel.

Advantages

The flap mounted grinding wheel combines a fiber-backed structure with very fine grit to deliver consistent surface quality and reduced risk of excessive material removal. Its flap design provides flexible contact that follows profiles and edges, improving finish uniformity. The small 80 x 50 x 6 mm size and mandrel mounting make it suitable for detailed work and tight spaces. Compatibility with a range of tool speeds and applications provides versatility for finishing tasks on different substrates.

Suitable for

• Fine finishing and polishing of metal surfaces
• Deburring edges and weld seams
• Surface blending and smoothing of wood and composites
• Detail work in confined or contoured areas using handheld grinders or rotary tools

Key specifications

• Dimensions: 80 x 50 x 6 mm
• Abrasive grit: 320–400 (very fine)
• Backing: fiber
• Design: flap-mounted abrasive flaps for flexible contact
• Mounting: mandrel-compatible for handheld grinders and rotary tools
• Suitable materials: metals, wood, composite materials

How to use

Secure the flap wheel to a compatible mandrel according to the tool manufacturer's instructions and ensure the mandrel is fully tightened. Fit the mandrel into a handheld grinder or rotary tool rated for the wheel's diameter and observe the tool's maximum safe speed. Start at a moderate speed and apply light, even pressure while moving the wheel across the workpiece to avoid gouging. Use overlapping passes for consistent finish and allow the abrasive flaps to wear naturally; do not force the tool into the workpiece. Replace the wheel when abrasive performance or structural integrity diminishes.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment including eye protection, gloves and respiratory protection when working on materials that generate dust. Verify that your tool's speed rating matches the wheel's safe operating range and maintain steady, controlled motion to achieve uniform results. For delicate surfaces, test on a scrap area first to confirm the finish before proceeding to the visible workpiece.
