Questions & Answers

To what degree of grit does thefine refer? Thanks so much?

As far as I know, there hasn't ever been a grit number equivalent to that of sandpaper or emery cloth for surface prep discs. A lot of manufacturers offer a variety of different varieties of cuts ranging from extremely coarse to extremely fine. Cleaning and polishing all metals is the primary function of these machines. When used in the automotive trade, they are used to quickly remove old gaskets that are stuck on before they are replaced A power train assembly includes assembly of such components as The intake manifold, the cylinder heads, and the Before welding, surface prep discs are also used to clean surfaces oxidized with or rusted with. A big time saver over manual scrapers and wire brushes, they let you remove even the toughest of surfaces effortlessly. A manufacturer may be a good place to spend some time if you spend some time there. You will be able to see the differences in the aggressiveness of the cuts on the web site and the images of the discs. Please let me know if this helps!

What is the 3 inch version of this product?

A twist loc disc is available in 3, 1, 2 and 3 inch sizes.

What are the chances of these shining up Harley Davidson forks?

Discs like these are used to remove a small amount of metal, seals, etc. in preparation for welding processes. If you need a disc for polishing, you will need a roloc disc made of felt.

What length are these disc holders? Does it come with a 1/4 inch shank? Where can you buy one if you don't have ?

Yes, it does not come with a 1/4" holder. However, you can purchase that item separately from The first thing I would do is go to Amazon.

The process of polishing aluminum
5/5

The polishing pads I used for these were chosen for polishing aluminum fuel tanks and wheels on a dump truck in a second step. The truck is 30 years old and used to be an over-the-road tractor, but it was recently converted to a dump truck. Originally the tanks and wheels were milky and i watched videos on how to polish them so they had a shiny surface. These were perfect and i'm still using the first one. Thus, I have used it on two 100-gallon fuel tanks and two front wheels and it has worn down about half of its original diameter. Angle die grinders are used for this purpose.

Here are the before and after pictures
4/5

Using the four chisels and a 2ah Ryobi 18v battery, I spent only a few minutes on this job and I'm pleased to report it was exactly what I wasn't I would say that it's about the same as 400-grit It polishes easily and doesn't scratch a lot. Since they're so stiff, I was expecting them to bend much easier. But as you can see, they get quite blunted by sharp edges quite easily. Even though I was not looking for 10 of these, I had no choice but to get the super fine grit I needed. This product is great for rust removal without scratching (at least for me). When you take care of it (like me), it wears in a matter of minutes. If you need all 10, it is worth the money (which is not the case for Moreover, I work in a drill for little jobs (I am actually me).

Finished in a smooth manner
4/5

Aluminum looks great when it is polished using these. Finished to an exceptionally fine standard. Also, I used them to remove powder coating from aluminum gates and fix some welded joints. While they did their job, they quickly wore out.

As a result of their thickness, thick pads last longer than thin pads, yet they wear out quicker
4/5

After just a few minutes or seconds, these loose their bite, but do work reasonably well. As long as they are worn down to a nub they still function, but the texture is softer and they polish more than cut and grind after the first 2 minutes. The idea that they would last forever had been mentioned. I don't know what they're using them for, but removing light rust from sheet metal wore mine out in about ten.

Shops should not be without this! Incredible abrasives the only company that offers a ROLOC option that rivals that of 3M non unitized wheels, but for a much lower price! It is so much better than a surface prep disc because it can be used to sand from its edge and the abrasive always reveals new grit as it wears off
5/5

It can be used from the edge all the way For those who work with metal, this is a must have. Finishes off the look beautifully.

That is awesome! You've done an amazing job! The wheel refinishing method is using them
5/5

A nice, thick profile with sharp corners is good for getting in Ensure that you are cutting well and that you are not loading I could never wear out the corners if I didn't use them so much.

3/5

There were no problems with other items I ordered they were all packaged and fine.
The red ones were loose in the box, and there were only nine of them.
