An abrasive flap disk, also known as a sanding flap disk, is a type of abrasive tool widely used in grinding, polishing, and surface finishing operations. It consists of multiple overlapping abrasive flaps that are assembled onto a central backing plate.

Made of plastic or fibre-mesh cover adhesive and emery cloth sheet
The Function and Characteristics of Flap Disc
Durability: They are constructed with high-quality abrasives and backing
materials. The combination of these materials ensures a relatively
long service life. The abrasives maintain their cutting ability
over an extended period, reducing the need for frequent
replacements and saving costs in the long run.
Good Heat Dissipation: During the grinding process, heat is generated. Flap discs are
designed to dissipate heat effectively. The open structure of the
flaps allows air to circulate, which helps to cool down the
grinding area. This not only protects the workpiece from
overheating and potential damage but also extends the life of the
abrasive flaps.
Controllable Aggressiveness: Different flap discs are available with varying levels of
abrasiveness. This allows users to select the appropriate disc
according to the specific requirements of the task. For example, a
more aggressive flap disc can be used for heavy material removal,
while a finer one is suitable for achieving a smooth and polished
finish.

Advantages of Flap Disc over Other Abrasive Tools
Service Life and Cost-Effectiveness
The self-cleaning design of flap discs extends their service life.
As the disc rotates, the flaps constantly expose new abrasive
surfaces and prevent clogging.
Grinding Performance
Flap discs are capable of delivering a finer grinding finish.
Composed of multiple overlapping abrasive flaps, they create a
relatively gentle grinding action.
