Tiger Angled flap discs deliver aggressive grinding and long life

Tiger Angled flap discs deliver aggressive grinding and long life, along with greater flexibility for grinding fillet welds, T-joints, hard-to-reach places, and for repair and rework. They are ideal for grinding steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and other hard-to-grind metals, without wearing prematurely.

 

Discs feature a 90-deg angled flap design that allows the operator to grind at a higher or lower angle, along with a phenolic backing that provides stability to the flaps. This combination optimizes flap-to-metal contact, resulting in better feel and control for the operator during grinding and finishing. In addition, the angled flaps reduce the risk of gouging the workpiece while grinding fillet welds for a smoother finish.

Tiger Angled flap discs feature:

  • available in 7/8-in. arbor or with a 5/8-in. -11 nut for fast changeover
  • ceramic alumina version has a top-coat that grinds cooler to protect valuable parts and prevents loading on softer alloys such as aluminum
  • zirconia alumina option boasts self-sharpening grains that deliver aggressive grinding and long life
  • both grain types offer a contaminant-free option for stainless steel applications
