Flap Grinding Wheel Cylindrical Cloth Grit 40 100×100×19 mm Glob

Flap Grinding Wheel Cylindrical Cloth Grit 40 100×100×19 mm Glob is a cylindrical flap wheel with cloth backing and P40 abrasive designed for aggressive material removal and surface preparation on metals and other hard materials. The wheel measures 100 mm in diameter, 100 mm in working length and has a 19 mm bore, making it compatible with grinders that accept this spindle size. It is intended for use where controlled stock removal, deburring and shaping are required, as well as for preparing welds and smoothing rough surfaces in workshops and industrial environments.

Advantages

The cloth-backed construction provides flexibility and durability, allowing the abrasive flaps to conform to contoured surfaces while maintaining consistent cutting action. P40 grit gives a balance between rapid stock removal and reasonable surface finish, reducing the number of passes needed for heavy-duty tasks. The cylindrical shape ensures uniform contact over the working length, supporting efficient material removal and predictable results across the surface.

Suitable for

• Removing rust, scale and paint from metal components
• Deburring and chamfering edges after cutting or machining
• Shaping and blending weld seams and joints
• Surface leveling and preparation prior to coating or painting
• General stock removal on steel, stainless steel and other hard materials

Key specifications

• Diameter: 100 mm
• Working length: 100 mm
• Bore diameter: 19 mm
• Abrasive grit: P40 (coarse)
• Backing material: cloth
• Shape: cylindrical flap wheel

How to use

Fit the flap grinding wheel onto a grinder or rotary tool that accepts a 19 mm bore, ensuring the wheel is mounted securely and runout is within the tool manufacturer's specifications. Operate the grinder at the recommended speed for the wheel and the material being worked; apply steady, even pressure and keep the wheel moving across the surface to avoid gouging and excessive heat build-up. For best results, make several light passes rather than attempting aggressive removal in a single pass, and allow the abrasive to cool if it becomes hot during prolonged use.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment, including eye protection, hearing protection, gloves and respiratory protection when working with grinding wheels. Inspect the wheel for damage before each use and replace if any flaps are torn or if the wheel shows signs of imbalance. Match the wheel grit and backing to the material and task: P40 is suitable for fast stock removal but will leave a coarser finish that may require subsequent finer grinding or sanding.
