Arc Abrasives 11170 Flap Wheel 80 Grit 1x1x1/4 Inch

Product Description

The ARC ABRASIVES 11170 is a 1/4-inch shank flap wheel designed for light finishing and deburring on metal and other surfaces. The flap construction allows the wheel to conform to the contours of a workpiece, maintaining consistent surface contact throughout the cut. As outer flaps wear, fresh abrasive grain is continuously exposed, sustaining cutting action across the full service life of the wheel. At 80 grit, it removes light burrs and blends surfaces without aggressive stock removal. This wheel is a standard tool for metal fabricators, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians working with portable die grinders.

This flap wheel is suited for light finishing and deburring tasks in both shop and field environments. Its compact 1 inch x 1 inch profile and 1/4-inch shank make it well matched for die grinder use in confined areas, including inside angles, internal pipe surfaces, tube bores, and other tight geometries where larger abrasives cannot reach. It is commonly used in HVAC fabrication shops, plumbing rough-in work, and general metal finishing where controlled, uniform surface preparation is required.

Key Features

• 80-grit cotton cloth construction for controlled light finishing and deburring
• Flap design conforms to workpiece contours for consistent surface contact
• Self-renewing abrasive action as flaps wear, extending usable wheel life
• 1/4-inch shank fits standard die grinders
• Compact 1 inch x 1 inch size accesses tight angles and internal pipe surfaces

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 1/4-inch collet die grinders. Suited for light finishing and deburring applications on metal, pipe, and fabricated components.

Installation Notes

Installation and use should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with rotary abrasive tools. Before mounting, confirm the die grinder spindle speed does not exceed the rated RPM of the flap wheel. Inspect the wheel for damage before each use and discard any wheel showing signs of separation or cracking. Always wear appropriate eye protection and follow applicable shop safety procedures when operating rotary abrasives.
