Individual abrasive sheets are adhered at a 90-degree angle to a central core, creating a flap-style action that conforms to contours and delivers consistent material removal. The abrasive mineral is very fine grade aluminum oxide, rated 5A VFN, suited for final-pass finishing where scratch pattern control matters. At 8 inches long with a 2-inch face width and a 3-inch arbor hole, this brush fits standard bench or pedestal grinder configurations. Tradespeople in metal fabrication, maintenance, and HVAC sheet metal work rely on this style of brush for deburring and surface prep.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis flap brush is appropriate for light cleaning and finishing applications on metal, painted, or composite surfaces in residential and commercial maintenance settings. The medium-hardness density rating of 5 supports controlled surface action without aggressive stock removal, making it well suited for final finishing passes on sheet metal, tubing, and structural components. It is sold individually and commonly used by sheet metal mechanics, maintenance technicians, and general trade professionals who need a repeatable, low-aggression surface finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVery fine grade aluminum oxide abrasive mineral for controlled finish quality\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIndividual sheets adhered at 90 degrees to core for consistent flap-style surface contact\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMedium hardness density rating of 5 balances conformability with durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8 inches x 2 inches x 3 inches dimensions suit standard bench and pedestal grinder arbors\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLight-duty rating appropriate for cleaning, deburring, and final finishing passes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style finishing flap brush for use on bench grinders and pedestal grinders accepting a 3-inch arbor, commonly used in sheet metal, HVAC fabrication, and general maintenance applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by qualified technicians familiar with bench or pedestal grinder tooling. Disconnect and lock out power to the grinder before mounting or removing the brush. Confirm that the spindle speed rating of the grinder does not exceed the rated speed of the brush before operation. Inspect the flap brush for damage prior to each use and do not exceed the designated load for a light-duty abrasive accessory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbrasive Mineral\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum oxide, very fine grade\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrade Designation\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5A VFN\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDensity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 (medium hardness)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlap Orientation\u003c\/strong\u003e: 90 degrees to core\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFace Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArbor Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.17 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDuty Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Light duty\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 00048011011776\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3M\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7100117447\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"3M","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51346683593010,"sku":"7100117447","price":317.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310520401.jpg?v=1782087473","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/3m-7100117447-finishing-flap-brush-8x2x3-in-5a-vfn","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
