Flap discs are essential abrasives for metal fabrication and are often the go-to choice for a wide variety of applications. Backing plates for flap discs are typically made of following materials: Fibreglass Strong, rigid and lightweight, fibreglass is the most commonly used material for a backup plate for a flap disc.
How to Select the Right Flap Disc for Your Project
Flap discs for aluminum : Compared to other metals, aluminum has a lower melting temperature and melts easily. This causes the aluminum material to coat the flap disc during grinding, covering the grit and exposing only bits of aluminum. For stock removal, use a T29 conical disc at a 15-degree angle to provide maximum surface contact.

Aluminum Oxide vs Zirconia Flap Disc - Binic Abrasive
1. Application: Aluminum Oxide: is suitable for grinding of welds on general metals, carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, etc. Zirconia Aluminum: Mainly used for heavy-duty grinding, suitable for grinding heat-resistant alloy steel, titanium alloy and authentic stainless steel, etc. 2. Performance & Cost
Check out this T29 flap disc for aluminum or this T27 aluminum flap disc. Both discs are made of high-quality aluminum oxide abrasive grains with the protective load-resistant calcium stearate coating to effectively grind aluminum at lower temperatures.
Scotch-Brite Discs for Metal Surface Preparation
With growing demand for abrasives to remove coatings and leave the metal underneath intact, 3M engineers built a solution: nonwoven abrasives. By adhering abrasive grain into the conformable nylon web, Scotch-Brite Discs quickly remove unwanted surface imperfections without cutting into the metal like fibre discs or flap discs.
