DEWALT DW8311 4-1/2-Inch by 5/8-Inch-11 36 Grit Zirconia Angle Grinder Flap Disc

For the price Dewalt wheels are great. Some places have cheaper wheels, but Dewalts are much sturdier, ie safer.

I love the quality of Dewalt tools, and I really love the amazing prices you can find them for through Amazon. Combine that with the free two day shipping that Amazon Prime membership provides, and these tools are a do-it-yourselfers dream. Any time I have a chore or project coming up, I check Amazon to see which Dewalt tools will do the job more efficiently. At these prices and with such fast shipping, it is always possible to have the right tool for any job.

Is not the same threads as one bought previously- so if you dont use it immediately are your just out of luck? please take a look at my previous Dewalt (and other) 5/8-11 thread purchases- there is something wrong with this disc

I was suggested this product for sharpening lawn mower blades, it fell apart before I even got done sharpening one blade. Might work alright for a more gentle application that doesn’t include shaving metal. Back to the trusty grinding wheel.

This was my first flap disc. Im surprised at how much manufacturing and tech has to go into making one of these gizmos. Theyre pretty well connected with high quality tech and materials in order to function properly. Dewalt (Black & Deckers commercial grade products) did OK on this one. FYI: Black & Decker = residential grade Dewalt = commercial grade ... SAME COMPANY!

These are excellent.

I saved a lot of money on all flap disk from this seller but most anywhere else Dewalt 120 flap disk is overpriced

Great deal and great product!!

I have always used these types of grinding discs for cleaning up metal surfaces. They dont chatter and when light pressure is applied the surface is polished. They work better and last longer is pressure is kept to a minimum so the work piece doesnt heat up, even just the pressure of the grinder is enough as these discs remove material quite fast.

Im writing this review because I tried the alternatives. I wanted to strip the paint off my deck (I didnt paint it), and started with the deck stripper chemical (which did well). For the parts coated too thickly with paint for the stripper to work, I tried various wheels that attached to my drill (ineffective), the random orbit sander (blew through discs and wouldnt fit everywhere), then the angle-grinder sanding discs with a separate quick loading adapter (flat discs were too hard to control). This 120-grit disc took off just the right amount of material (a bit more aggressive than 60 grit on a random orbit sander) without a lot of scratching. It lasted through everything I wanted to sand: especially all the vertical surfaces under the deck and stairs, and between balusters. Really useful and efficient.
