126 / Coated Abrasives www.youtube.com/NortonAbrasivesEMEA BEARTEX FLANGE MOUNTED FLAP WHEELS Formed by mounting sheets of BearTex around a centre core. The tightly packed piece forms the spokes of a wheel. This construction makes flap wheels the most conformable of all BearTex wheels providing a cushioning action which is ideal for use on uneven or irregular surfaces, as well as flat areas. SD: Soft density MD: Medium density HD: Hard density HDEX: Extra Hard density 1. NON-WOVEN FLAP WHEELS (standard for stock) 2. INTERLEAVED FLAP WHEELS (made-to-order) Both in variable sizes with widths from 10 to 2000mm. Available in a wide range of abrasive types, grits and densities for metal and woodworking. BEARTEX FLAP WHEEL TYPES INTERLEAVED FLAP WHEELS Interleaved wheels are more aggressive than standard BearTex, due to the coated abrasive flaps found inside the wheel. This creates a “firmer” wheel that provides a higher rate of cut. The ratio of coated flaps to non-woven flaps can be altered to suit particular applications. Ideal for deburring and grain finishing on stainless steel. Available in both spindle and flange mounted versions. Flange mounted interleaved wheels can be shaped to match the profile, e.g., a wood moulding. DENSITIES The different densities facilitate a versatility ranging from soft cushioning pads to hard cleaning and finishing tools. The density of a wheel can be increased (hardened) by adding more flaps, as shown below: COATED ABRASIVES
