Straight type flap disc uses 

1. Grinding and Material Removal:
   • Straight type flap discs are commonly used for heavy-duty grinding and material removal applications. The abrasive flaps efficiently remove excess material, such as weld seams, burrs, and rough surfaces on metal.
2. Blending and Surface Conditioning:
   • These flap discs are effective for blending surfaces, providing a smooth and uniform finish. They can be used to blend welds, eliminate scratches, and prepare surfaces for painting or coating.
3. Deburring:
   • Straight type flap discs are excellent for deburring sharp edges and removing burrs from metal workpieces. The abrasive flaps can reach into intricate areas, ensuring thorough deburring.
4. Edge Chamfering:
   • The straight configuration of the flaps allows for controlled chamfering of edges, creating beveled surfaces for improved aesthetics and safety.
5. Finishing and Polishing:
   • These flap discs are suitable for achieving a finer surface finish on metal. They can be used in polishing applications to enhance the appearance of workpieces.
6. Preparation for Welding:
   • Straight type flap discs are often employed to prepare metal surfaces for welding by removing rust, scale, and contaminants, ensuring proper weld adhesion.
7. Surface Cleaning:
   • The abrasive action of the flap discs helps in cleaning surfaces by removing coatings, corrosion, and other unwanted materials.
8. General Metalworking Applications:
   • Straight type flap discs are versatile tools that can be applied in a wide range of metalworking tasks, making them a go-to choice for professionals in industries such as construction, manufacturing, and fabrication.
9. Efficient Stock Removal:
   • These flap discs are efficient in quickly removing stock material, saving time and effort in various metal shaping and fabrication processes.
10. Consistent and Controlled Material Removal:
    • The straight arrangement of the flaps allows for a more controlled and consistent material removal, making these discs suitable for tasks that require precision.
