Abrasive flap disc Norton Clipper FLD FDTF 125x22 mm P120 for metal grinding

The Norton Clipper FLD FDTF abrasive flap disc 125x22 mm P120 is designed for metal grinding and surface finishing tasks where controlled material removal and consistent surface quality are required. Engineered for use with angle grinders that accept a 22 mm bore, this flap disc combines layered abrasive flaps with a durable backing to deliver predictable cutting action on steel and other ferrous metals. It is suitable for workshops and construction sites where blending, deburring and weld dressing are common operations.

Advantages

This flap disc offers uniform wear and stable performance through its overlapping abrasive flaps, which maintain cutting efficiency as the disc wears. The P120 grit provides a balance between moderate stock removal and fine surface refinement, reducing the need for follow-up finishing. The robust attachment and backing ensure safe operation at typical angle grinder speeds, while the disc geometry supports consistent contact with the workpiece for even results.

Suitable for

• Grinding and blending weld seams on steel
• Deburring edges after cutting or machining
• Surface preparation before painting or coating
• General metal surface finishing and light stock removal

Key specifications

• Diameter: 125 mm
• Bore: 22 mm (fits standard 22 mm angle grinder spindles)
• Abrasion grit: P120 for medium-fine finishing
• Construction: layered abrasive flaps on a supportive backing for consistent wear
• Intended materials: steel and other ferrous metals

How to use

Mount the flap disc on an angle grinder with a 22 mm spindle and ensure the grinder is disconnected from power while fitting. Operate the grinder at the manufacturer's recommended speed and use steady, even pressure; avoid excessive force that can reduce disc life and affect finish. Move the disc across the workpiece with overlapping passes to achieve a uniform surface, keeping the grinder at a shallow angle for finishing or a slightly steeper angle for more aggressive stock removal. Allow the abrasive to do the work—do not jam the disc into the material.

Usage recommendations

Use the P120 flap disc for tasks requiring moderate material removal with a relatively fine final surface. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including eye protection, gloves and hearing protection. Inspect the disc before use for damage or uneven wear and replace if necessary. For best results, pair with consistent grinding technique and compatible grinder speed ranges specified by the tool manufacturer.
