​Flap Wheels with Shank: The Ultimate Tool for Polishing and Deburring

Flap Wheels with Shank: The Ultimate Tool for Polishing and Deburring

A flap wheel with a shank, often called a mounted flap wheel, is an indispensable abrasive tool for anyone working with metal, wood, or plastics. Designed for precision and versatility, it excels at polishing, deburring, and surface finishing, especially in hard-to-reach areas. This tool is perfect for craftsmen and professionals who need a smooth, clean finish on small holes, irregular crevices, and intricate surfaces.

Key Features and Benefits

Our flap wheels are engineered for high performance and durability, providing a superior finish every time.

• Precision Finishing: The radial design of the abrasive flaps allows the wheel to conform to the shape of the workpiece, providing a soft and smooth cut on rounded or irregular surfaces. This is ideal for fine polishing of internal surfaces and deep holes.

  
  

• Versatile Applications: Use these wheels for a wide range of tasks, including removing burrs, rust, and old paint, as well as preparing surfaces for finishing. They are effective on various materials, from stainless steel and other metals to wood and plastics.

  
  

• Durable Construction: Our flap wheels feature an aluminum oxide blend that delivers an excellent cut rate and a long service life. The X-weight cotton backing is built to withstand aggressive sanding and grinding, while the resin bonding resists thermal and chemical deterioration.

  
  

• Convenient Shank Design: The central shank allows for quick and easy attachment to portable grinders, drills, bench motors, and other power tools, making them incredibly easy to use.
