Industrial-Strength Grinding Performance: High-Speed Zirconia Flap Discs for 3X Faster Material Removal and Extended Life

The DEWALT DW8381 6-inch Type 29 HP Flap Disc is engineered for professional metalworkers who demand speed, durability, and a superior finish. Featuring premium zirconia grit, these discs are designed to remove material three times faster than traditional fiber resin metal sanding discs. Whether you are blending welds, deburring jagged edges, or prepping heavy structural steel, the aggressive 60-grit abrasive cloth provides a consistent cut-rate that significantly reduces your time on the tool, making it a staple for high-volume fabrication shops.

Built for comfort and longevity, the Type 29 fiberglass backing is optimized for grinding at aggressive angles of 20 to 25 degrees, allowing for maximum contact between the abrasive and the workpiece. Each disc is constructed with a high-quality abrasive cloth that lasts up to 15 times longer than standard resin discs, providing exceptional value and fewer change-outs. Optimized for 6-inch angle grinders, this 10-pack of zirconia wheels delivers the industrial-grade power needed to tackle the toughest ferrous metals and stainless steel applications with ease.

Key Features

  • Zirconia Alumina Grit: Enables 3X faster material removal for increased jobsite productivity.
  • Extended Lifespan: Premium abrasive cloth provides up to 15X longer life than standard fiber resin discs.
  • Optimized Grinding Angle: Type 29 shape and fiberglass backing are ideal for aggressive 20-25 degree grinding.
  • Aggressive 60 Grit: Perfectly balanced for rapid stock removal and professional surface preparation.
  • Cooler Cutting: Engineered to reduce heat buildup, protecting the workpiece from discoloration and warping.

Pro-Tip: To achieve the best finish and prevent the disc from "loading up" or glazing, use a light touch and keep the grinder moving constantly. Type 29 discs are specifically designed for contouring and edge work; let the flaps do the work rather than applying heavy downward pressure, which extends the life of the zirconia grain.
