Abrasive Cylindrical Flap Wheel Glob FINE 100×100×19 mm for ALU Satinizing Sets

The Glob Abrasive Cylindrical Flap Wheel FINE 100×100×19 mm is an abrasive non-woven flap wheel designed for satinizing and controlled finishing of aluminium and other metal surfaces. Built for use with ALU satinizing sets, this cylindrical wheel provides consistent surface texture, deburring and light blending without aggressive material removal. Its fine abrasive structure helps produce uniform satin finishes and smooth edges on workpieces in handheld or machine-mounted operations.

Advantages

This flap wheel offers stable performance on metal surfaces thanks to its non-woven construction and fine abrasive grade. It creates a repeatable satin effect with minimal risk of gouging or over-polishing, preserves component geometry while removing burrs and light imperfections, and reduces the need for secondary manual finishing. The cylindrical shape and standardized dimensions ensure simple replacement and compatibility with common ALU satinizing setups.

Suitable for

• Satinizing aluminium panels and profiles
• Deburring light welds and cut edges
• Blending surface defects and minor scratches
• Final texture finishing before coating or anodizing
• Edge rounding and consistent matte surface preparation

Key specifications

• Shape: cylindrical flap wheel
• Abrasive type: non-woven abrasive fibre
• Abrasive grade: fine
• Dimensions: 100 mm diameter × 100 mm length × 19 mm bore
• Intended materials: aluminium and a variety of metals
• Mounting: for handheld tools or machine-mounted use in ALU satinizing sets

How to use

Mount the flap wheel on an appropriate mandrel or arbor that fits the 19 mm bore and secure it according to the tool manufacturer’s instructions. Operate at recommended speeds for non-woven abrasives and apply steady, light pressure while moving the wheel across the workpiece to achieve an even satin finish. Use consistent passes to blend imperfections and avoid staying in one spot to prevent localized overworking. For best results, verify compatibility of rotational speed and feed rate with the workpiece thickness and fixture setup.

Usage recommendations

For controlled satinizing on aluminium, begin with a light pressure and inspect the surface frequently. When processing complex profiles or thin sections, reduce speed and use shorter passes. Replace the flap wheel when the abrasive action becomes uneven or when the desired finish requires a fresher abrasive surface.
