The CGW 42565 flap disc is a 5-inch diameter, 7/8-inch arbor Type 29 disk designed for heavy-duty grinding on steel. It features a zirconia alumina grain on a poly/cotton backing, a combination chosen to balance durability, finish, and aggressive stock removal. The zirconia concentration contributes to fast material removal, making this disc well-suited for demanding stock-removal tasks where time efficiency matters while maintaining a reasonable working finish. An active grinding aid is included to provide cooler cutting when operated with light pressure, helping to reduce heat buildup during extended grinding sessions.
This disc is rated for up to 12,200 RPM, which supports high-speed operation typical of heavy-duty grinding work. The Type 29 angle promotes a flatter grinding surface on flat or contoured parts, aiding control and versatility across varied geometry. As part of CGW’s line, this product targets applications requiring aggressive material removal with a cleaner finish than many other coarse-grit options, though it is important to match wheel hardness and grit to the specific material and desired finish. The package quantity is ten discs per box, and the item is identified by CGW42565 with a 5" diameter and 7/8" arbor size.
