OVERVIEW

Compact Finishing Power for Industrial MRO

The Walter 2-1/2" Flap Disc (SKU: 04A256V) is engineered to bring the durability and finish quality of full-sized flap discs to compact, hard-to-reach applications. Designed for maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO) professionals who demand efficiency, this 60-grit abrasive disc is a versatile tool for your die grinder inventory. Sold in a convenient package of 5, it ensures your team has the necessary consumables on hand for detailed surface preparation tasks.

Quick-Change TR Mounting System

Time is money in industrial environments. This disc features a plastic "TR" button, compatible with standard Type R quick-change backing pads. This system allows operators to switch between grits or replace worn discs in seconds without the need for wrenches or specialized tools. The secure locking mechanism ensures the disc stays centered and stable, even at high RPMs, providing safety and precision during delicate operations.

Versatile Material Compatibility

Whether your facility handles mild steel structures, stainless steel food-grade equipment, or aluminum components, this Walter flap disc delivers consistent results. Its abrasive formulation is designed to prevent cross-contamination while offering an aggressive enough cut to blend welds and remove imperfections. The 60-grit texture serves as an excellent intermediate step, capable of removing light stock while leaving a surface finish that is often paint-ready or suitable for final polishing.

Cost-Effective One-Step Finishing

Traditional methods often require using a grinding wheel followed by a sanding disc to achieve a smooth finish. The Walter 04A256V combines these steps. The layered flap construction exposes fresh abrasive grains as the disc wears, maintaining a consistent cut rate and finish throughout the product's life. This longevity translates to fewer disc changes and lower overall abrasive costs for your shop.
