Grinding wheel GRAPHITE 55H756 for rotary tool — wood, 6 mm shank, 40 mm diameter

GRAPHITE 55H756 grinding wheel for rotary tools is designed for sanding, shaping and smoothing wooden surfaces. The flap wheel has a 40 mm diameter and 20 mm working width mounted on a 6 mm shank to fit most rotary tools, drills and screwdrivers. Constructed from durable X-type cloth with aloxite abrasive grains and a closed fill, the wheel provides even material removal and consistent surface finish during modelmaking, carpentry and DIY restoration work. Single piece pack, weight approximately 32 g.

Advantages

The flap wheel's closed fill ensures uniform coverage of abrasive grains across the entire working surface, improving finish precision and prolonging service life. Flexible, overlapping flaps conform to contours and edges for controlled sanding on flat and shaped wooden parts. The robust X-type cloth base and K80 grit deliver a balance between cutting speed and surface smoothness, while the standard 6 mm shank allows quick mounting in most rotary tools.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Sanding and finishing wooden edges and small components
• Shaping and deburring in modelmaking and woodworking
• Restoration and surface preparation for painting or varnishing
• Light material removal on plastics and thin metal where wood-like sanding is required

How to use

Secure the GRAPHITE 55H756 flap wheel on a compatible rotary tool or drill using the 6 mm shank. Start at low speed to check mounting stability, then increase speed as permitted by the tool and the workpiece material. Apply light, consistent pressure and move the wheel along the wood grain or across contours to achieve the desired shape and finish. Periodically inspect the wheel for wear and replace when performance decreases or the cloth backing is damaged.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment including eye protection, dust mask and gloves. Avoid excessive pressure and prolonged local contact to prevent overheating of the workpiece and premature abrasive wear. For finer finishes, progress to higher grit flap wheels or abrasive papers after initial shaping with the K80 wheel.
