Flaps Offer Aggressive Cut on Radiused and Contoured Parts
A flap wheel comes in handy when you're faced with the challenge of cleaning up burrs and parting lines on radiused or specially shaped parts where coated discs are not conformable enough or do not have the necessary reach. We offer the Standard Abrasives™ Aluminum Oxide Flap Wheel in smaller diameters for attachment to hand-held tools, and larger diameters for off-hand applications. A broad selection of grades is available to deburr edges, remove flash and parting lines, blend machine marks, apply a linear scratch pattern, or provide light blending, cleaning, or polishing.Compared with non-woven products, flap wheels offer a more aggressive cut for cleaning or finishing. If a silicon carbide product is preferred for finishing applications, consider our Standard Abrasives™ Silicon Carbide Flap Wheel, available in 1-3˝ diameters (sold separately). When a job requires even more flexibility for improved finishing, or to reduce dust, we suggest a Standard Abrasives™ Flexible Flap Wheel (sold separately), which has flaps with increased flexibility and a slight radius to the flaps.
Some tools may require an additional reducer bushing or adapter for wheel attachment.
Small Wheels Access Inner Radiuses and Maintain Maximum Control
Our flap wheels with smaller diameters provide access to smaller and harder-to-access inner radiuses or contours on irregular parts. They are especially useful for cleaning or deburring the insides of tubing. For these smaller areas, flap wheels provide a softer touch than rolls or bands, which are suitable when more aggressive material removal is required.Our smaller wheels are 1-3˝ in diameter have a 1/4˝ steel mandrel or a 1/4˝-20 threaded steel shank to enable fast yet secure product change outs. In each case the steel attachment runs the full width of the wheel center, reducing chatter in the rotation. As a result, you get a smoother finish and the operator maintains greater control of the tool with less pressure and increasing productivity.
Large Wheels Supply Broader Coverage
For larger hand tools or off-hand applications, we provide flap wheels in diameters from 3-1/2˝ to 8˝ with 1˝ or 2˝ widths. These sizes have a 5/8˝ or 1˝ center hole compatible with larger tool arbors. The larger wheels contain more flaps per wheel for faster cutting, increased productivity and longer life.Durable Wheel, Fast Cut
Aluminum oxide is a popular choice among industrial professionals because of its versatility on different surfaces, fast cut-rate and long life. It is a tough, durable abrasive that self-fractures to expose fresh cutting edges in use, whereas traditional abrasives such as garnet quickly wear down with use. Aluminum oxide mineral is suitable for a wide variety of materials including ferrous and non-ferrous metals.Quality Standard Abrasives™ Products for Industrial Applications

Precise Dimensions And Size
This flap wheel measures 6 inches in diameter, with a 1 inch width and 1 inch thickness, providing broad coverage for many tasks. The size allows it to work well on inside and outside diameters of metal workpieces.
Its dimensions make it suitable for both hand-held and off-hand tools, offering consistent coverage on contoured or radiused surfaces. This size balance helps achieve a straight line finish efficiently.
Effective Format And Technology
The flap wheel features coated abrasive flaps that provide aggressive stock removal, blending, finishing, and cleaning. This format is especially useful on radiused and contoured parts where coated discs may not conform well.
Steel mandrels reduce chatter and operator fatigue, improving control and productivity. The flap design also allows for coverage on complex shapes, making it a practical tool for detailed metalwork.
Convenient Pack Size Offerings
This product comes in a pack of 5 each per case, making it easy to stock up for ongoing projects. Having multiple wheels on hand reduces downtime and ensures consistent workflow.
The pack size supports industrial applications where frequent wheel changes are needed. It also helps maintain productivity by providing ready replacements for worn wheels.
Durable Abrasive And Performance
Aluminum oxide is a durable abrasive that self-fractures to expose fresh cutting edges, offering a fast cut rate and long life. This makes the flap wheel suitable for a wide variety of materials, including ferrous and non-ferrous metals.
The wheel’s aggressive cut and quality construction ensure efficient deburring, blending, and finishing. Its toughness helps maintain performance over extended use, reducing the need for frequent replacements.
