Experience the difference that premium abrasives make with the Sait Encore Type 27 Flap Disc. Designed for the professional welder who demands reliability and performance, this 5-inch disc (SKU 71225) is a powerhouse for heavy grinding and blending. The "Encore" designation signifies that this disc is built with a higher volume of flaps than standard competitors, giving you a longer-lasting tool that keeps you grinding when others would have already worn down. For welders, this means less time stopping to swap out discs and more time focusing on the bead.
The 30 Grit Zirconium grain is aggressive and tough, making it the ideal choice for taking down heavy welds, beveling edges, or removing thick rust and scale. Unlike traditional aluminum oxide discs, Zirconium grain stays sharp longer, cutting cooler and faster. This specific disc is a true multi-tasker in the shop. Whether you are fabricating mild steel structures, finishing stainless steel food-grade equipment, or grinding aluminum components, this single disc handles it all. It is specially formulated to prevent "loading" (clogging) on soft aluminum and is certified contaminant-free for stainless steel, ensuring your welds remain pure and corrosion-resistant.
The Type 27 flat shape offers excellent control for blending on flat surfaces, while the 7/8-inch arbor ensures compatibility with your standard 5-inch angle grinders. The cotton backing adds a layer of durability and helps dampen vibration, reducing operator fatigue during long grinding sessions. Upgrade your abrasive arsenal with a flap disc that works as hard as you do.
