The CGW 31015 4-1/2 inch by 7/8 inch Type 27 Zirconia Flap Disc is designed for efficient metal grinding and finishing, particularly on stainless steel surfaces. It combines a premium blend of zirconia and aluminum oxide grains with a grinding aid to enhance material removal while managing heat buildup during use. The Type 27 profile is optimized for grinding on flat or mildly contoured workpieces, enabling effective contact with the material and smoother finishing in a single step.
This disc uses zirconia as the primary abrasive grain, which offers a balance of aggressive stock removal and durability. The combination with an aluminum oxide component provides a stable grinding action with improved heat resistance, which helps minimize warping or discoloration when working near heat-sensitive applications. The included grinding aid further supports consistent performance by reducing friction under load, contributing to steadier operation and longer disc life in demanding metalworking tasks.
Ideal use scenarios include fabrication and maintenance tasks involving stainless steel and other alloys where heat management is important. The 4.5" diameter and 7/8" arbor size fit common angle grinders, and the 80-grit finish is suitable for initial material removal with a relatively fine surface finish. The product is packaged as individual units in a box containing ten discs, simplifying stocking and replacement in shop environments. When selecting and using this flap disc, ensure compatibility with your grinder’s RPM rating and follow standard safety practices for wheel and disc use, including proper mounting, guard installation, and PPE.”
