BORDO Abrasives Flap Wheels
- Aluminium Oxide.
- Flap wheels are ideal for stock removal, deburring, cleaning, blending and finishing in a variety of applications, including stainless steel pipe fabrication and stainless steel vessels.
- A flap wheel is an abrasive wheel made from abrasive strips (flaps) radiating from a centre hub.
- Bordo flap wheels come in many different diameters, widths and grits.
- The outside diameter of the wheel can range from 30mm to 80mm.
- Bordo flap wheels use Aluminium Oxide (Al2O3) as the abrasive material which is bonded to the strips of the wheel.
- Aluminium oxide is a fused, hard synthetic crystalline abrasive.
- Within the abrasive compound the Aluminium and Oxygen elements are held very close together causing these two relatively light elements to make a hard, dense crystal.
- On the MOHS scale of hardness Aluminium Oxide is 9.0.
- This hard crystal structure has a tendency to slowly dull or round and is hard to fracture.

- Zirconia (Zirconium Oxide)
- Flap discs are available in a wide range of sizes and grits and are used for applications including weld seam removal, surface blending, edge grinding and weld preparation on ferrous and non-ferrous metals.
- Their main advantage over other types of abrasives in that they grind and finish in one operation, thereby, reducing both finishing time and finishing costs.
- Flap discs produce very little vibration and noise during use.
- Zirconia is significantly tougher than aluminium oxide abrasives which makes zirconia well suited to high pressure machining and grinding applications.
- Zirconia has a good heat resistance and is commonly used in general steel fabrication for the grinding and finishing of steel, and stainless steel.
