Pennsylvania-based Weiler Abrasives Group, a leading provider of products for surface conditioning in welding & fabrication, industrial production, and maintenance, repair & operations, has added a new flap disc to its Tiger® coated abrasives lineup. New Tiger Angled flap discs offer flexibility for grinding fillet welds, T-joints, hard-to-reach places, and for repair and rework. They are designed for grinding stainless steel, steel, aluminum and other hard-to-grind metals, without wearing prematurely.
The Tiger Angled flap discs feature a 90-degree angled flap design that aims to allow the operator to grind at a higher or lower angle, along with a phenolic backing that provides stability to the flaps. Tiger Angled flap discs are available in 7/8-inch arbor or with a 5/8-inch -11 nut for fast change-over. Weiler offers Tiger Angled in both a ceramic flap disc and a zirconium flap disc. Both grain types offer a contaminant-free option for stainless steel applications.
