Flap Discs - 40 Grit - 4.5" - AB Tools

These discs are suitable for use on carbon steels, casting steels, and other metals. They can also be used on certain other surfaces, but always test in an inconspicuous area first.

These discs are designed for use with 4 1/2" (115mm) angle grinders.

No, these flap discs fit directly onto the angle grinder without the need for a backing pad.

The discs are designed to last significantly longer than conventional sanding discs, offering extended use and value.

This particular disc is 40 grit.

Always wear safety goggles to protect your eyes. Use appropriate dust protection, especially when working on materials that produce a lot of dust. Ensure the work area is well-ventilated.

While these discs are primarily designed for metalworking, they can be used for wood sanding. However, be aware that the 40 grit may be too aggressive for some wood projects. Always test in an inconspicuous area first.

Check the pressure being applied; excessive pressure can accelerate wear. Ensure the correct disc type for the material being worked on is being used. Make sure you are using the disc on the appropriate angle grinder.

Ensure the disc is securely mounted. Check that the disc is suitable for the material. Try a different speed setting on the angle grinder if available.
