A Zirconium Conical Flap Disc ideal for use on General and Stainless Steels, a good economical general purpose disc.

The SALDISC uses high performance zirconia alumina abrasive, offering cooler operating temperatures in use, resulting in less discouration of stainless steel. It is inherently a more robust and longer lasting abrasive than aluminium oxide.

General Applications:

  • Normal, Stainless and Alloy steels
  • Non-ferrous metals and their alloys

Main Applications

  • High stock removal performance grinding
  • Edge grinding and removal of weld seams
  • Descaling and rust removal
  • Small area surface grinding

Description

FLAP DISC ZIRCONIATED FIBRE BACKED CONICAL SALDISC (Pkt 10)

SALDISC – A Type 29 Conical Flap Disc for use on Stainless Steel, offering high stock removal, being angled they offer greater surface contact for stock removal on flat surfaces.

A versatile grinding and finishing product, assembled from two main components

Fibreglass backing plate – offering high strength and low weight while aiding vibration absorption.

  • Abrasive Material Rectangular flaps of overlapping cloth backed abrasive material are glued to the backing plate. This design ensures worn abrasive is constantly replaced by fresh abrasive during use. The disc therefore offers consistent performance throughout its life.

Available in the  following Grits: 40, 60, 80, 120

And Sizes 100mm, 115mm 125mm 180mm

Why Zirconium Flap Discs

Zirconium flap discs from SAL Abrasives are the go-to choice for professionals seeking exceptional competitively priced, performance in metal grinding and finishing applications. Made with high-quality zirconium oxide grains, these discs are designed to provide superior cutting action and long-lasting durability, making them ideal for working with harder materials such as stainless steel, high-carbon steels, and cast iron. Whether you’re working in construction, fabrication, or metalworking industries, zirconium flap discs are essential for delivering smooth, efficient results.

The key benefits of zirconium flap discs are their excellent heat resistance and enhanced wear characteristics, which ensure that they last longer than conventional abrasive discs. The overlapping flaps are constructed to gradually wear down, revealing fresh abrasive material, offering consistent cutting power throughout the disc’s life. This design not only increases the lifespan of the disc but also helps reduce vibrations, providing a smoother finish on the workpiece. Available in various grit sizes, SAL Abrasives zirconium flap discs offer versatility for a wide range of applications—from rough grinding to fine finishing—making them a highly effective and cost-efficient solution for any heavy-duty grinding job.

Zirconia flap discs are designed for fast, aggressive grinding, blending, and finishing on steel, stainless steel, and aluminium. Made with durable, self-sharpening zirconium grain, they outperform aluminium oxide discs, lasting longer and withstanding higher heat and pressure.

Key Features & Uses

  • Best Applications: Heavy stock removal, weld blending, rust removal, and edge grinding on ferrous metals.
