Why this flap disc stands out
-
Compact 2-inch diameter for work in confined areas where larger discs can’t reach, from motor housings to intricate weld joints.
-
80 grit aluminum oxide abrasive provides a balanced blend of aggressive stock removal and refined finish, ideal for deburring, smoothing welds, and shaping edges.
-
Thread arbor mounting offers secure, quick attachment to compatible grinders, ensuring stability at high speeds and reducing vibration during use.
-
High-speed capability rated up to 30,000 RPM, so you can finish jobs faster without sacrificing control or surface quality.
-
Single-disc package delivers a ready-to-use solution for immediate projects, with dependable Forney performance you can trust.
Ideal uses and scenarios
- Finishing welds and deburring sharp edges on small parts, brackets, and assemblies.
- Profiling irregular contours or radii where a larger disc won’t fit, such as flanges, brackets, and tool-paths on fabrication work.
- Prepping surfaces for coatings by removing burrs, oxidation, and light rust without gouging the base material.
How to use and care for best results
- Mount on a grinder with a compatible threaded arbor and ensure the disc sits flat against the workpiece.
- Operate at a light to medium pressure with a steady, even motion. Let the disc do the work to minimize heat buildup and glazing.
- Keep the work at a comfortable angle—typically 15–30 degrees—for controlled material removal and a uniform finish.
- Frequently check the disc for wear or glazing and replace when performance declines. Allow the tool and part to cool if you notice excessive heat.
