Flap Discs

Description

Flap discs are essential abrasives for metal fabrication and are often the go-to choice for a wide variety of applications. The discs are made up of many layered, overlapping sections of abrasive material or ‘flaps. These flaps are formed of a polycotton or polyester backing material to which abrasive grains are adhered, these are then layered and bonded to a backing plate.
