Norton Vortex Rapid Prep Non-Woven Flap Discs last longer and produce increased cutting rates and smear-free finishes simultaneously. Norton's patented Vortex agglomerated aluminum oxide grain technology enables the cutting power of a coarser grit while producing a finer finish in one abrasives disc solution.
Ideal for light blending, stripping, edge breaking, and surface prep applications in key industries such as metal fabrication and welding, aerospace, transportation, energy, and construction, the flap discs feature special 3D non-woven abrasive layers. This design ensures uniform finishing with a consistently low surface finish value. In addition, multiple layers of surface conditioning material provide added life, fewer disc changes for better efficiency, and reduced vibration.
The discs also feature Norton proprietary Clean Bond resin technology that guarantees smear-free finishes, even on high nickel content alloys and reduced loading when cutting aluminum and other softer metals.
Norton Vortex Rapid Prep Type 27 Discs also provide forgiveness and reduced vibration on uneven surfaces for maximum ergonomic use. Discs are offered in 4.5 x 7/8 in. and 4.5 x 11-5/8 (114 x 22 mm and 114 x 295 mm) sizes in fine, very fine, medium, and coarse grits
