Description

VSM 113461 5 Inch Surface Conditioning Disc, Coarse Grade

The VSM 113461 is a 5 inch coarse grade surface conditioning disc with a hook and loop back, sold 10 discs per pack. It is made from a non-woven nylon web filled with aluminum oxide abrasive, for rust removal, deburring and weld blending on metal, composites and plastics.

Features and Specifications

• Diameter: 5 inch (127 mm)
• Grade: coarse, the most aggressive cut of the three grades, for heavy cleaning and blending
• Abrasive: aluminum oxide in a non-woven nylon web
• Attachment: hook and loop, for standard hook and loop backing pads
• Pack: 10 discs

How It Works

The open web resists loading and runs cool, which lowers the risk of discoloring the workpiece and extends disc life. The flexible web conforms to irregular surfaces, so it blends evenly over welds, edges and curved parts instead of cutting flat spots like a coated disc. Start with coarse on rust, scale and weld spatter, then move to medium and fine to refine the finish.

Who Uses It

Metal fabricators, welding shops, automotive repair and maintenance crews use the VSM 113461 to clean, blend and prepare parts before paint, coating or assembly.

Tips for Best Results

Keep the disc moving and use light to moderate pressure; pushing hard wears the web quickly and can glaze the surface. Work at a shallow angle so the face of the disc does the work. Make sure the hook and loop pad is clean and in good shape, since a worn pad lets the disc slip or fly off. Wear eye and hand protection, and keep a spare disc on hand so you can swap as soon as the web wears thin.
