Product Details
The 3M™ flap wheel type 83 244D measures 3" x 1/2" x 1/4" and features 80 grit aluminum oxide on a firm, x-weight cloth backing. It is a general purpose flap wheel designed to deliver a consistent finish and uniform cut, suitable for a variety of grinding and polishing applications. The aluminum oxide abrasive is known for its fast cut-rate, long life, and toughness, as it self-fractures to expose fresh cutting edges, making it durable and effective compared to traditional natural abrasives that dull more quickly. This flap wheel is resin bonded for heat resistance, features a straight spindle mount for easy attachment, and is compatible with bench motors, die grinders, and inline sanders. Common applications include blending, descaling, refining, and setting the grain, with primary use in the metal fabrication industry.
