Weiler 98800 Flap Disc Type 29 4-1/2in 40 Grit
This zirconia alumina flap disc is built for aggressive stock removal on metal surfaces. It suits welders, fabricators and maintenance technicians who need a coarse 40 grit abrasive for heavy grinding and blending tasks.
13 000 RPM maximum speed with phenolic backing
The disc runs at up to 13 000 RPM on a standard density phenolic backing plate. Zirconia alumina grain resists heat build-up during extended grinding, while the Type 29 angled flaps maintain consistent contact without excessive vibration or loading.
5/8 In. -11 threaded hole for direct mounting
The 5/8 In. -11 threaded centre hole fits angle grinders directly, without a quick-change adapter. This frees up tool changes and reduces stack height, letting operators work in tighter joints and corners where a backing pad would limit access.

Questions about this item
How do I install the Weiler 98800 flap disc onto my angle grinder, and which step is most often done wrong?
Thread the 5/8 in.-11 centre hole onto the grinder spindle and tighten with the supplied flange nut; the step most often missed is snugging the nut while holding the spindle lock so the disc cannot loosen under vibration.
What maintenance or replacement will the Weiler 98800 flap disc need during its service life?
The zirconia alumina flaps wear down with use; replace the disc once the abrasive surface is exhausted or the phenolic backing shows through, as the disc cannot be resurfaced or re-flapped.
What is the first limit I will hit when running the Weiler 98800 flap disc continuously at high load?
The 13,000 RPM maximum operating speed is the primary limit; exceeding it risks disc disintegration, so the grinder must never run faster than that rating.
