Frequently asked questions
Q: Can I buy the packs separately?
A: Yes. Each pack in this kit is also sold on its own. The kit price is the same as the four packs added together, in one order.
Q: What order do I use them in?
A: Clean the joint with a strip & clean disc, grind the weld down with a high density flap disc, shape the fillet with the curved edge disc, then finish with the nylon polishing disc.
Safety
Check that your grinder's rated speed does not exceed the maximum RPM marked on each disc (strip & clean discs: 11,000 RPM maximum). Run the nylon polishing discs at lower speed, starting below 5,000 RPM. Always use the grinder guard and wear eye, face, hand and hearing protection. Inspect every disc before use and set aside any disc that is cracked or damaged.
