Made of non-woven material with added stiffness, our standard Abrasives™ quick-change buff and blend HP disc has a durable web designed for applications such as removal of burrs or tough contaminants and can be used on a variety of substrates. The quick-change system offers both convenience and a secure attachment to the tool, enhancing operator efficiency and productivity. We designed our standard Abrasives™ quick-change buff and blend HP disc to conveniently and efficiently perform light deburring and aggressive cleaning on a variety of metal substrates: ferrous and non-ferrous metals, aluminum, high nickel and stainless steel. The tough nylon web offers sustained performance without tearing and leaves a consistent finish on the workpiece meaning less or maybe even no rework is required. This disc features very fine (VFN) grade aluminum oxide mineral, which cuts sharp for efficient blending. Among the four standard Abrasives™ buff and blend materials, HP material is moderately stiff, durable and aggressive and we recommend starting here for deburring applications. Its non-woven construction makes the material responsive to contours and extrusions, so you no longer have to worry about gouging or marring the substrate. Our HP disc is a smart choice when you need to remove part lines from small castings, small burrs from threaded pipes, burrs from aluminum extrusions or die cast flashing or heavy surface oxidation. Its durability results in a long service life, helping to reduce the need for replacements. Moreover, the sturdy material stands up to edges and extrusions, minimizing edge fraying and grain shedding. If greater durability is desired for heavier-duty applications such as edge deburring, we recommend upgrading to one of our standard Abrasives™ buff and blend high strength (HS) discs. Standard Abrasives™ quick-change buff and blend discs are available in disc diameters up to 5 in. Quick-change discs allow tool-free swap outs, maintain secure attachment at high speeds and save operators time when switching discs between grades or applications. Easy fastening and swapping of discs enhances tool efficiency and worker productivity. Choose the disc compatible with your TR or TS holder pad. TR discs have a nylon threaded male hub that easily threads onto TR or 3M™ Roloc™ type holder pads with a turn of the wrist and the TS system has a metal hub that fastens to its holder pad with a simple twist. Standard Abrasives™ buff and blend non-woven products offer many benefits. Varying buff and blend materials help distinguish buff and blend products from each other, but all buff and blend products have an open web. The open web combines abrasive mineral and non-woven nylon fibers with a resin-reinforced bond. The resin bond securely anchors mineral to the fibers, making for a strong, durable abrasive. Gaps between fibers allow swarf to escape, so the abrasive does not get clogged with debris. Minimizing swarf and debris prolongs abrasive service life and keeps minerals cutting sharper for longer. Nylon fibers won't splinter during grinding, offering a good alternative to steel wool. Moreover, as the fibers break down and fresh mineral is exposed, it reduces the likelihood of dull or blunt mineral smearing the surface. Standard Abrasives™ buff and blend products deliver a consistent cut and finish - part after part. The standard Abrasives™ brand has supplied quality abrasives to the metalworking industry for over 50 years. Customers rely on our broad offering of high performance products including coated, bonded and non-woven abrasive lines.
