Högert Technik Flap Wheel with Shank 40x20x6 mm Grit 80

The Högert Technik flap wheel with a 6 mm shank is a professional-grade abrasive tool engineered for precision grinding, smoothing, and finishing tasks. With a head diameter of 40 mm and a height of 20 mm, this tool features high-quality abrasive flaps with an 80 grit rating, providing an effective balance between material removal and surface refinement. It is designed to be compatible with standard power drills and die grinders, making it a versatile addition to any workshop toolkit.

Advantages

This flap wheel offers exceptional durability and consistent performance due to its high-quality abrasive material construction. The radial arrangement of the flaps allows the tool to adapt to the contours of the workpiece, ensuring uniform contact and a smooth finish even on complex shapes. Its design minimizes the risk of gouging the material, providing better control during delicate grinding operations compared to solid grinding stones. The integrated 6 mm shank ensures a secure fit in most standard chucks, facilitating quick and easy tool changes.

Suitable for

• Smoothing rough edges on metal and wood surfaces
• Removing rust, oxidation, and old paint layers
• Deburring machined parts and welded joints
• Refining surfaces before painting or coating

When it may not be suitable

This flap wheel is not intended for heavy-duty material removal or grinding large, flat surfaces where a larger diameter disc would be more efficient. It is also not suitable for use on materials that are significantly harder than the abrasive flaps, as this will lead to rapid wear of the tool.

Key specifications

• Head diameter: 40 mm
• Head height: 20 mm
• Shank diameter: 6 mm
• Grit size: 80
• Material: Abrasive cloth flaps

How to use

Insert the shank of the flap wheel into the chuck of your power drill or die grinder and tighten it securely. Ensure the tool is centered and balanced before starting the power tool. Apply light, even pressure to the workpiece, moving the tool in a consistent motion to achieve a uniform finish. Do not exceed the maximum recommended rotational speed of your power tool to prevent damage to the abrasive flaps.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your power tool is compatible with a 6 mm shank diameter.
• Ensure the 80 grit rating is appropriate for your specific finishing requirements.
• Check the maximum RPM rating of your tool to ensure it aligns with the flap wheel specifications.

Usage recommendations

Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including safety goggles and a dust mask, when operating grinding tools to protect against flying debris and dust particles.
