At 4.5 inches in diameter with a 5\/8-11 arbor hole, it mounts directly to standard angle grinders. The disc uses aluminum oxide abrasive in a very fine grade, making it suited for finishing passes rather than aggressive stock removal. A fiberglass backing plate supports the flap construction and maintains disc geometry under load. Rated to 133,000 RPM, it exceeds the operating speed of most 4.5-inch angle grinders by a wide margin, keeping it within safe working limits during sustained use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis flap disc is used in metal fabrication shops, welding operations, and general maintenance environments where a controlled, fine finish is needed after heavier grinding steps have been completed. The Type 27 flat profile keeps the disc parallel to the work surface, making it well suited for flat stock, weld spatter cleanup, and blending on sheet metal or structural steel. It is typically installed and used by welders, fabricators, maintenance mechanics, and industrial tradespeople working with standard right-angle grinders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eType 27 flat profile for flush surface contact and consistent finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAluminum oxide non-woven abrasive in very fine grade for finishing and light conditioning\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFiberglass backing plate for dimensional stability under load\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/8-11 arbor hole fits standard angle grinder spindles directly\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e133,000 RPM maximum speed rating provides a wide safety margin on 4.5-inch grinders\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlue disc color for quick identification during tool changes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-mount replacement for standard 4.5-inch Type 27 flap discs used with 5\/8-11 threaded angle grinders.

Always power down and disconnect the grinder from its power source before mounting or removing a disc. Confirm the grinder nameplate RPM rating does not exceed the disc maximum RPM before use. Wear appropriate PPE including eye protection and gloves, and inspect the disc for damage before each use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDisc Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCenter Hole Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8-11 arbor\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlap Disc Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Type 27\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbrasive Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbrasive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Non-Woven\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Very Fine\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBacking Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Fiberglass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAttachment Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Arbor\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDisc Color\u003c\/strong\u003e: Blue\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum RPM\u003c\/strong\u003e: 133,000\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions (H x W x L)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.5 x 4.5 x 0.88 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.18 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: NORTON\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 77696097547\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NORTON","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51540621918514,"sku":"77696097547","price":37.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d32c17605a0dbdc8dcce2b866bc927d4.jpg?v=1785860325","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/norton-77696097547-flap-disc-4-5in-type-27-aluminum-oxide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
