Abrasive flap disc KLINGSPOR SMT314 125 mm grit 60 (model 322817)

The KLINGSPOR SMT314 abrasive flap disc 125 mm grit 60 is a radial-flap grinding wheel designed for work on metal and stainless steel. Its construction uses overlapping abrasive flaps that provide consistent material removal and an even finish across the contact area. Intended for use with angle grinders, this flap disc is suitable for blending welds, deburring edges and preparing surfaces prior to painting or further finishing.

Advantages

The SMT314 flap disc delivers uniform abrasion and steady stock removal thanks to its balanced flap layout and resilient backing. Grit 60 offers a compromise between aggressive cutting and surface refinement, enabling efficient shaping while reducing the risk of uneven attack. The 125 mm diameter is compatible with common angle grinder models and provides a stable working area for controlled grinding on flat and contoured surfaces.

Suitable for

• Grinding and shaping steel and stainless steel components
• Blending and smoothing weld seams
• Deburring sharp edges and removing burrs
• Surface preparation before painting, coating or polishing
• General fabrication, metalworking and maintenance tasks

Key specifications

• Diameter: 125 mm
• Abrasive grade: grit 60
• Construction: overlapping abrasive flaps for even wear
• Intended use: metal and stainless steel
• Tool compatibility: angle grinders

How to use

Fit the 125 mm flap disc to a compatible angle grinder following the tool manufacturer's mounting and safety instructions. Operate the grinder at the recommended speed range for this disc type and apply light, even pressure; allow the abrasive flaps to do the cutting rather than forcing the tool. Move the disc across the surface in steady passes, maintaining a consistent angle to achieve uniform material removal and avoid gouging. Replace the disc when wear or damage reduces performance or exposes the backing.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment including eye protection, gloves and hearing protection. Ensure the grinder's speed rating matches the disc specification and avoid side-loading or heavy hammering actions. For stainless steel, use moderate pressure and keep the disc moving to minimize heat buildup that can cause discoloration. Store discs in a dry, moderate-temperature environment to maintain abrasive performance.
