Metabo 623487000 P80 Non-Woven Abrasive Flap Wheel

These are invaluable for touch-up work on stainless and brass. You can work out shallow cross grain scratches in no time.

I saw on Youtube how this can be used, with the grinder, as a sanding wheel, when mounted stationary. HOWEVER, absolutely No where can you find the arbor, the shield, or the bolts to make this happen. It's like a great idea, for those of us who don't need "more equipment", just better use of "what we have". (I know, I sound so un-American, not wanting to go out and spend spend spend my way to happiness, but....too bad). I was able to find a rod connector, the appropriate bolt, and fashioned a shield to protect against flying objects (I use a face shield anyway). Hey Metabo, did you know you could use theses for woodwork, too (more than just auto body repair?) And I'm sorry I didn't feel the need for the $600 burnisher when my angle grinder (with appropriate additions and modifications) would work as well. Come on guys, give us poor working guys a little break.

Worked very well with my SCT machine

continuous to keep buying

An unbelievable option for wood or metal sanding or polishing.

The quad keyway arbor is made from lighter plastic than other brands, but the non-woven nylon abrasive (they call it fleece, 3M calls it scotch-brite) is actually very dense and of a high quality. I use it to finish 304 Grade Stainless steel on a Fein 14-25E inline polisher/sander and it's held up better than I expected. Regularly, these inline non-woven nylon abrasive flap drums/wheels come in Coarse, Medium, Fine, Very Fine, Super fine, etc., so I didnt know where "80 grit" with respect to non-woven nylon vs. Aluminum Oxide (typical sandpaper) would fall on the aggressiveness scale. I would have to say that this 80 grit Metabo wheel is between coarse and medium but a lot closer to the coarse end of the spectrum.

great

These do a great job at brush finishing, but they don't last long at all.They are overpriced for how quickly they break down.
