Materials of our flap discs
and abrasive tool

Years of research and development become real in a new product conception

The two main aspects we have focused on over the years are qualityensured by an accurate selection of starting materialsand the choice of the type of disc based on the material on which it'll be used. You should choose a specific abrasive discs for each processed material and for each processing carried out such as cutting, sanding, abrasion and finishing.

Below we present the technical information of our abrasives with an unbeatable price/benefit ratio.

CERAMIC ALUMINIUM-OXIDE

This new coated abrasive product belongs to a new generation of abrasive grains, obtained through a special chemical synthesis process. Compared to the traditional abrasive grains the ceramic one has a microcrystalline structure of high purity that during the work tends to continuously present new small sharpened edges.
That means very fast cutting action and longer life. This product shows its excellence mainly in the heavy duty works and with the harder metals.
The abrasive cloth has a supersize coating: it has the feature to reduce burns and heating on work pieces.

According to the other materials the ceramic aluminium-oxide allows the following:

Reduced burns on the piece

Versatility of working: iron, common steel, alloy steel, stainless steel

Increased length

Higher cutting speed

ABRAPLUS GREEN

Any product of the nylon flap discs range can be requested with AbraPlus Green backing, a special material, with the same performances of the traditional nylon backing, but produced in an environmentally sustainable way. Less energy and less resources are used to produce AbraPlus Green.
Same quality, variety of colours, and the same nylon range with greater enviromental benefits.
