Abrasive Flap Wheels

Combination flap wheels are suitable for use on stainless steel, aluminium and brass. They are ideal

for finishing stainless steel in kitchen appliances, cooker hoods and sinks for example. They provide fine deburring and will provide a good finish and are perfect where a regular linear structure is required.

 

Combined spindle mounted flap wheels have the same use as the tex spindle mounted flap brushes below, but are more aggressive due to the action of the cloth flaps.
