Flap Wheel
Flap wheels have been used since the 1960 for an easy way to sand wood components and
furniture parts without having to change the sanding head each time a new profile had to be
sanded. Flap Wheels are used for aggressive sanding in the coarser grits and fine sanding in the
finer grits. 2" Flap Wheel complete with hub and universal flange for any size arbor. 1/4" to 2"
arbor size. 28 segment brush/abrasive segments Grit 100. The p 100 grit can remove light knife
marks on a molding and break sharp edges on a profile before a finer grit is used and stain and
sealer coat is applied. If you want to use this for sanding edges it will also work well for this job.
The final sanding before stain and sealer is often what people use it for. Sanding the part with
Flap Wheels cleans up the work piece and sands off the fine wood fibers that are in the top of the
wood. The other advantage is less consumption of sealer coat, as the fibers are gone and cannot
absorbed the sealer a smoother sealer is the result after sanding with a flap wheel before stain is
applied.
This style flap wheel is most often used for aggressive sanding jobs on un-finished wood or
reclaimed wood where a strong grit needs to be used for removal of imperfections. The
advantages to the flap wheels are the ability to contour to any sharp or profile without altering
that sharp or profile. The grit 60 however will be able to alter profiles as its very course grit.
