Description
AluCUT is a high-performance ceramic flap disc designed specifically for grinding aluminum and other soft metals. Made with VSM STEARATE self-sharpening ceramic abrasive material, it delivers strong material removal while helping resist loading and buildup.
The specialized coating helps prevent aluminum and other soft materials from clogging the abrasive surface, allowing for smoother and more consistent grinding. Its ceramic grain provides excellent durability and sustained grinding performance, making AluCUT an efficient choice for fabrication, weld grinding, blending, and general-purpose work on aluminum and soft metals.
Suitable for the following materials:
- Aluminium
- Unalloyed Steel
- Non-Ferrous Metals
Depending on the grinding angle and surface to be ground, Flap Discs are available in two types:
Type 27 – has flat surface and can achieve maximum efficiency when applied at a work angle of 0-15 deg angle. These discs are the most suitable for grinding flat surfaces.
Type 29 – has a slightly conical surface, for grinding at 10-25 deg angle. These discs are the most suitable for grinding contoured surfaces.
