Right angle grinder abrasives

[Michael Kellough]

Klingspor has a quick-lock flap wheel system. It uses a backing disk that is secured normally to the grinder then a variety of abrasive flap rings can be attached by hand.

That's a pretty slick idea. The replaceable abrasive part is about $2 cheaper than the old 1-piece style. For changing between steel, aluminum and stainless abrasives it'd be a lot more convenient.

Klingspor needs to do a better job in outlining what each abrasive wheel is recommended for. As of now, they offer 3 different wheels in the same diameter, with the same grit and using the same Alumina Zirconia abrasive material with no mention as to what each wheel should be used on.  [sad]

Klingspor and their woodworkingshop websites are pretty frustrating.

This link is to an assortment kit.

This first page of three shows more of the range. And I didn’t check the two following pages.
