This Flap Wheel is a Shaft Cloth & Non-Woven variation. Combination cloth and non-woven flap wheels offer a balance of material removal and finishing, making them suitable for applications where both stock removal and a smooth finish are desired.

The difference between an abrasive flap wheel with shaft cloth and a flap wheel with shaft cloth and non-woven material lies in the composition and resulting performance characteristics. Here’s a breakdown:

• Shaft Cloth features abrasive cloth flaps layered and bonded to a central shaft. They are more aggressive at material removal, leave a visible line pattern on the workpiece and suitable for applications requiring stock removal and blending.
• Shaft Cloth & Non-Woven combines abrasive cloth flaps with non-woven abrasive material. They are less aggressive than cloth-only flap wheels, provides a finer finish with less noticeable lines, offers a combination of material removal and surface finishing in a single step and are well-suited for applications demanding a smoother finish, such as stainless steel.
