Aluminum Backing Plate Flap Disc 5"
(Pack of
1.0)
The Aluminum Backing Plate Flap Disc is your all-in-one solution for efficient grinding and finishing. Designed with high-tech zirconium abrasive cloth, its angled flaps maximize contact with the surface, ensuring a clean, consistent finish that lasts. With its aluminum backing for extra strength, this flap disc allows for more aggressive grinding on materials like stainless steel while staying quieter and cooler than conventional discs. Whether tackling stock and weld removal or blending and dressing on farm machinery, truck bodies, or structural metal, this durable tool delivers faster cuts, reduced clogging, and long-lasting performance, all without the need for a backing pad.
Two tools in one grind and finish at the same time
Much quieter than grinding discs
No backing pad required
Ideal for 15° 25° working angle
For use on portable right-angle grinders
Suitable for use on a wide variety of materials, including stainless steel
Preminum use for all steel materials and welds
IMPORTANT: If you are currently using a resin fiber grinding disc, you should order your Blue-Kote Flap Disc one to two grits coarser to obtain a similar finish.
CAUTION: Protect yourself from product breakage and flying particles. Always wear eye and face protection, and make sure machine guards are in place. Comply with ANSI B7.1.
