Contact wheels FAPI-VUS OPEN

The contact wheel FAPI-VUS OPEN is a further development of the dense model. Here the aluminium core is coated alternately with a long and short lamellae of foamed up Vulkollan® .

The overall height of the coating must also be adapted to the respective application and is therefore variable (standard: 35 mm).

The open model cools better, or respectively it dissipate heat better. The precise adaptation of the soft running cushion to the workpiece makes it possible to achieve high performance results when finishing.

Advantages

The contact wheels of the FAPI-VUS – series are coated only with lamellae of foamed up Vulkollan®

Benefits of contact wheels with lamellae of foamed up Vulkollan® :

  • Highly elastic (adaptable)
  • Wear-resistance
  • Oil-resistance
  • Grease-resistance

Because of these outstanding properties, contact wheels of the FAPI-VUS – series have proven themselves in the market over decades.

Applications

Contact wheels FAPI-VUS OPEN are used in particular to achieve a high-quality finish on heavily profiled or heavily rounded workpieces in a very short time.

Grinding: cylindrical grinding, profile sanding

Grinding method: dry grinding

Operation: automatic grinding, portable machines, pedestal grinder/backstand, robotic grinding

Dimensions

Diameter: 75 to 450 mm
Width: 20 to 200 mm
Lamella height: 20 mm / 35 mm / as per specification
Hole: as per specification

Other dimensions on request!

Coating hardness

The hardness of lamellae of foamed up Vulkollan® coating can be differentiated into three levels. The range extends here from a soft lamellae of foamed up Vulkollan® coating with 25º Shore (A) to a hard lamellae of foamed up Vulkollan® coating with 45º Shore (A).

The right lamellae hardness always depends on the individual application.
