Product Details
The 3M™ flap wheel type 83 747D measures 2" x 1" x 1/4" and features a 60 grit ceramic mixed ceramic abrasive. Each flap is coated with a ceramic abrasive mix that combines aluminum oxide and 3M ceramic grain to enhance toughness, hardness, and durability, making it suitable for light to moderate stock removal and surface preparation. The abrasive mix is bonded to a flexible X-weight cotton backing with a resin bond specifically designed to resist thermal and chemical deterioration during high-speed sanding, providing faster cuts and higher cut rates. The wheel includes a grinding aid for cooler running on stainless steel, and its self-cutting flaps continuously expose fresh abrasive material for consistent sanding performance throughout the wheel's life. The coated abrasive flap wheel is ideal for light grinding, blending, graining, and scale removal on various metals, available in flange mounted and spindle mounted constructions using either general purpose aluminum oxide or the high-performing ceramic aluminum oxide blend. Applications include blending, descaling, refining, and setting the grain, primarily in metal fabrication industries.
