Merit Abrasives 08834184079 Overlap Disc 80 Grit

Product Description

The MERIT ABRASIVES 08834184079 is a flexible slotted overlap disc designed for light grinding, blending, and surface preparation tasks where conformability to curved or irregular surfaces is required. Built with coated aluminum oxide abrasive in a medium grade, 80-grit configuration, this disc delivers consistent stock removal on metal, wood, and composite surfaces. The inward overlap design and two-layer construction provide extended abrasive contact and improved disc life compared to standard flat discs. At 1.5 inches in diameter and fitted with an 8-32 eyelet, it mounts securely to compatible mandrels used with handheld or bench-mounted rotary tools.

This disc is suited for finishing and blending work in tight areas, contoured surfaces, and precision deburring applications. It is commonly used by machinists, metal fabricators, and maintenance technicians working on small-diameter bores, inside curves, and hard-to-reach weld seams. The flexible construction allows the disc to follow the workpiece profile, reducing the risk of gouging flat spots into contoured parts.

Key Features

• 80-grit coated aluminum oxide abrasive for medium-grade material removal and blending
• Inward overlap disc type conforms to curved and irregular surface profiles
• Two-layer construction extends abrasive life and maintains consistent contact
• Flexible design reduces gouging risk on contoured workpieces
• 1.5-inch diameter with 8-32 eyelet for secure mandrel mounting

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard consumable for rotary tool mandrels accepting 8-32 eyelet overlap discs in 1.5-inch diameter format.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists or fabricators using a compatible threaded mandrel mounted in a rotary tool or die grinder. Ensure the rotary tool is powered off and unplugged before mounting or removing the disc. Thread the eyelet onto the mandrel securely and verify the disc seats flush before operating. Always wear appropriate eye protection and observe the tool manufacturer's maximum RPM rating for this disc size.
