Disc for Your Project How to Select the Right Flap Disc for Your Project

If you are working on a material like wood, fiberglass, or soft metal that you could end up scuffing with a regular wire wheel, a paint stripper may be more suitable. After using your angle grinder to sand wood, you should always remove the saw dust before moving onto the next step. You can remove thick surface areas without too much hassles, and at far less cost than you would with a sanding disc or sandpaper. You can choose a higher or lower grit depending on how fine or coarse you want the abrasive grains to be. An angle grinder disc is any disc designed to fit in an angle grinder and rotates at high speed to perform cutting and polishing operations.Aluminum Oxide: This is the original grit material used in the 1970s when flap discs were first introduced. Use the angle grinder gently to smooth out the surface, then work your way up to a light-grit flap disc of 100 or 120 for the finishing touch and removing the deepest scratches.

Remember, fiberglass backing is made out of layers of fiberglass that are mesh-bonded and pressed together. Although there are several methods available for sanding wood, using an angle grinder is always an excellent choice.

Sometimes these are referred to as flap wheels, although that name is more appropriate for a radial flap wheel that you use on a drill or rotary tool. Metal: Metal backing plates are the safest choice, and they’re great when you need extra strength and firm support.
