The CGW 42742 7" x 7/8" Type 27 40-Grit XL Zirconia Flap Disc is designed for aggressive material removal on metal surfaces. This flap disc combines premium zirconia alumina grain with a durable poly/cotton backing to deliver efficient stock removal while maintaining a workable finish. The zirconia concentration is intended to provide higher stock removal rates, making it suitable for heavy-duty grinding tasks.
Construction features a Type 27 profile, which is commonly used for grinding on flat and contoured surfaces. The XL configuration expands the number of grinding flaps, contributing to longer life and more consistent performance under demanding use. An active grinding aid is included to promote cooler cutting under light pressure, potentially reducing heat buildup during extended grinding sessions.
Typical use scenarios include aggressive metal finishing, deburring, and edge chamfering on ferrous materials where faster material removal is prioritized. Operators should apply moderate pressure and maintain appropriate grinding speeds to leverage the disc’s design, and follow standard safety practices for flap discs with appropriate personal protective equipment. The disc is sized for 7" wheels with a 7/8" arbor/shank, intended for compatible angle grinders compatible with Type 27 discs, and is packaged as individual pieces within a 10-disc supplier shipment, allowing convenient stocking for busy maintenance workloads.
