A high removal rate combined with a long service life and an optimal grinding pattern are the requirements for fiber discs in companies. Fiber discs are roughly comparable to grinding flap discs and grinding discs.

We would be happy to advise you on which fiber discs can be used in your machining process to achieve top performance.The application of fiber discs is diverse. Due to their excellent suitability, they are now used in companies for (very) coarse grinding work, for derusting metal parts, for deburring and for processing weld seams. Almost all materials (metal, stainless steel, steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metal, wood, plastic, stone and marble) can be processed very well with fiber discs. Thanks to the wide range of grain sizes, fine machining of metals can also be carried out with fiber discs.

Picard tip:
Please do not process different types of steel with the same fiber disc. This can lead to rust formation as traces of material can get stuck between the grains of the fiber disc and are transferred during grinding.Advantages of fiber discs over grinding flap discs and grinding discs:

• Better adaptability to the surface
  Due to the elasticity of the fiber disc, it can adapt to the surfaces to be processed much better than, for example, a rigid grinding disc.

• Better grinding pattern
  The grinding pattern or surface on the workpiece to be machined is better with fiber disks than with a grinding disk.

• Vibration-free work
  During the grinding process with a fiber disk, the “softer” structure absorbs the vibrations that occur during grinding, while the vibrations with grinding flap plates and grinding disks are strongly passed on to the user. With fiber discs, fatigue-free work is possible.

• Cost-effective
  Fiber discs are significantly more cost-effective compared to abrasive flap discs and grinding discs. Ultimately, fiber discs are “just” round, stamped abrasives. Fiber discs as well as abrasive flap plates and grinding discs benefit from the fact that they are easy to handle. This means there is hardly any set-up time for changing the fiber disc.
