FLAP WHEELS & BRUSHES
Flexovit Flap Wheels and brushes are available in a wide range of abrasives, grits and densities. Flap wheels
and brushes are used in many industries, from metal working to wood working. Flexbrite Flap Wheels are suitable
for a variety of applications, from surface cleaning through to satin finishing and light deburring. The different
densities make the products very versatile: from soft densities that give cushioning actions ideal for use on
uneven or irregular surfaces, to hard densities ideal for cleaning and finishing metal.
FLAP BRUSHES
Advantages:
Flexbrite brushes have different densities and are interleaved with coated abrasives giving
significant benefits over other types of abrasives.
FLAP WHEELS
Advantages:
Flexbrite Flap Wheels not only works well on flat areas, but is also ideal for use in finishing
operations on uneven surfaces. They are especially suitable where they need to adjust to the surface and give
a uniform finish. When used on most metals, A/O (Aluminium Oxide) Flap Wheels will produce a long line scratch
pattern with a dull satin, matt type, finish. The SIC (Silicon Carbide) Flap Wheels will produce a long scratch finish
with a semibright, matt type, finish.
