Weldcote’s Z-Prime and Z-Solid flap discs feature polycotton backing with zirconia grain

Weldcote, a division of Zika Group, has introduced Z-Prime and Z-Solid zirconia flap discs for applications on carbon-based steels and stainless steel. They are manufactured of zirconia grain that provides fast metal removal. The zirconia technology incorporates an active grinding agent that provides cool cutting with light pressure, the company reports.

Both flap discs feature a polycotton backing designed to provide increased grain retention and still provide flexibility and the ability to withstand the high pressure generated from a right-angle grinder. The Z-Prime discs are available in 4-, 4-1/2-, 5-, 6-, and 7-in. sizes, and the Z-Solid flap discs are available in 4-1/2-, 5-, 6-, and 7-in. sizes.
