OVERVIEW

Maximize Efficiency with Walter Enduro-Flex Flap Discs

The Walter Surface Technologies Enduro-Flex flap disc (SKU: 06B504) represents a pinnacle in abrasive innovation, designed specifically for industrial environments where efficiency and longevity are paramount. This 5-inch, 40-grit disc is engineered to provide a one-step finishing solution, effectively removing material while leaving a high-quality finish, thereby reducing the need for multiple abrasive steps. By consolidating grinding and finishing into a single operation, workshops can significantly reduce labor costs and turnaround times.

One of the standout features of the Enduro-Flex line is the patented Eco-Trim backing. Unlike traditional fiberglass-backed discs that must be discarded once the outer edge of the flaps wears down, the Enduro-Flex features a trimmable plastic backing. As the abrasive cloth wears, the operator can easily trim the backing to expose fresh grain, extending the useful life of the disc by up to three times. This translates to substantial cost savings in consumables over the fiscal year and reduces waste, aligning with modern sustainability goals.

The 06B504 model comes equipped with an integrated 5/8"-11 threaded hub, ensuring compatibility with standard angle grinders and allowing for rapid, tool-free changeovers. The raised hub design not only facilitates easier mounting but also provides clearance for the grinder's locking nut, ensuring a secure fit. Furthermore, the disc is designed to operate with minimal vibration and noise, enhancing operator comfort and reducing the risk of fatigue-related errors during prolonged use. Suitable for both steel and stainless steel applications, this flap disc is a versatile asset for any metal fabrication facility.

Key Industrial Benefits:

Cost Reduction: Trimmable backing utilizes more of the abrasive material.
Versatility: Effective on both ferrous and non-ferrous metals.
Safety: Vibration-free operation reduces hand-arm vibration syndrome (HAVS) risks.

FAQ

Eco-Trim is a trimmable plastic backing that allows you to cut away the backing material as the abrasive flaps wear down, exposing fresh abrasive and extending the disc's life by up to 3 times.

This disc is designed for use on both steel and stainless steel, making it versatile for various fabrication tasks.

No, the Enduro-Flex 06B504 comes with an integrated backing and a 5/8"-11 threaded hub, so it mounts directly to your angle grinder without extra hardware.

The maximum safe operating speed is typically 12,200 RPM for 5-inch Walter Enduro-Flex discs. Always check the disc label to confirm.

Flap discs like the Enduro-Flex grind and finish in one step, providing a smoother surface finish and less vibration compared to hard grinding wheels which are primarily for aggressive stock removal.

40 grit is a coarse grit intended for heavy stock removal and weld grinding. For fine finishing, you would typically step up to a higher grit (e.g., 60, 80, or 120) after the initial grind.

The backing can be trimmed by running the edge of the backing against a sharp metal edge or using a cutting tool designed for this purpose, safely exposing new flaps.

The raised hub design ensures compatibility with all standard grinder back flanges and keeps the mounting nut recessed or integrated, preventing interference with the workpiece.
