Abrasive flap wheel Glob Tools cylindrical 100x100x19 mm fine, non-woven (Satyniarka)

The Glob Tools cylindrical abrasive flap wheel 100x100x19 mm is a fine-grit, non-woven satin finishing (Satyniarka) accessory designed for surface conditioning and light polishing tasks. Constructed with a uniform non-woven abrasive layer and a cylindrical form, this flap wheel mounts on tools with a 19 mm bore and is intended to produce consistent satin finishes, remove burrs, blend edges and refine metal surfaces without aggressive material removal. The moderate size and fine abrasive structure make it suitable for controlled finishing on stainless steel, aluminum, brass and other metals, as well as some painted or coated surfaces where gentle conditioning is required.

Advantages

The non-woven construction provides a consistent finish and long service life while reducing the risk of scratches compared with conventional bonded abrasives. Fine grit delivers even satin polishing and surface blending with minimal dimensional change. The cylindrical shape ensures uniform contact on flat and slightly contoured surfaces, and the 19 mm mounting bore allows quick fitting to compatible spindles and mandrels. Overall, the tool is balanced for steady rotation and predictable results in finishing operations.

Suitable for

• Surface conditioning and satin polishing of stainless steel and other metals
• Deburring and edge blending after cutting or machining
• Preparing surfaces for painting or coating by light abrasion
• Refining weld seams and smoothing transitions on fabricated parts

Key specifications

• Shape: cylindrical flap wheel
• Dimensions: 100 mm diameter × 100 mm width × 19 mm bore
• Abrasive type: non-woven / synthetic fiber with fine abrasive
• Grit/finish level: fine — satin (Satyniarka) finish
• Suitable materials: stainless steel, aluminum, brass, mild steel, coated surfaces
• Typical mounting: 19 mm bore for spindles, mandrels or adapters

How to use

Install the flap wheel onto a compatible spindle or mandrel with a secure fit and ensure the mounting is perpendicular to the workpiece. Operate the tool at speeds recommended for non-woven abrasives and the material being worked; avoid exceeding the maximum safe RPM of the wheel and the host machine. Apply light, even pressure and move the wheel steadily across the surface to achieve a uniform satin finish. For best results, maintain consistent travel direction and avoid dwelling in one spot to prevent uneven polishing or heat buildup.

Usage recommendations

Wear appropriate personal protective equipment including eye protection, gloves and respiratory protection when working with metal dust and abrasive debris. Use steady, moderate speed and pressure, and check the workpiece frequently to prevent over-polishing. Replace the wheel if the non-woven material becomes excessively worn or if balance is compromised.
