Flexible Grinding and Polishing Tools for every application

Flexible grinding and polishing tools incorporate various product groups which will ensure the right tool for your specific application. The sub-categories contained within this section are shown as follows: –

IQ Series – Flap Discs

Predominantly used for deburring, fettling, removal of rust, surface preparation and weld seam removal. Manufactured with a wide selection of backing materials e.g. glass fabric, plastic & metal. With grit sizes ranging from 36 grit to 80 grit and diameters ranging from 115mm to 230mm, we offer discs to suit both rough grinding and fine grinding applications.
