CGW 53001 6" X 7/8" Type 27 36-Grit Z3 Zirconia Flap Disc

The CGW 53001 is a 6 inch diameter zirconia flap disc designed for aggressive stock removal on steel and similar metals. It features a 7/8 inch arbor and a Type 27 grinding profile, making it suitable for use on right-angle grinders to achieve flat, efficient material removal while maintaining a controlled finishing action. The disc uses premium zirconia-alumina grain bonded to a durable poly/cotton backing, which supports both robust performance and a smoother finish during extended use. An active grinding aid is incorporated to help maintain cooler cutting with light pressure, which can reduce heat buildup and help extend abrasive life when operating at higher speeds.

This product is configured for high stock removal with a grit of 36, leveraging zirconia's toughness to resist loading and wear during heavy-duty applications. The combination of grain, backing, and the Type 27 profile is intended to provide an effective balance of material removal and surface texture on metal substrates. The design is geared toward users performing vigorous grinding tasks where fast material removal is prioritized, rather than fine finishing at the outset.

For compatibility and handling, this flap disc is specified with a 6" diameter and 7/8" arbor size, suitable for standard 6" fast-change or compatible angle grinders that support Type 27 discs. The package size is listed as Each with a box quantity of 10, which is helpful for stocking and procurement planning in maintenance and fabrication environments. When selecting this disc, ensure your grinder speed does not exceed the rated RPM of 10,200 to maintain safe operation and avoid disc failure.
