Rocaris 10 Pack Flap Wheel, 120 Grit for Rotary Tools，1/8 inch Shank (32X10X3)

Tried these out in my drill and spent about 30 seconds polishing the rust off one half of my vise (see photo for before and after). It worked very well and Ill be using these to clean up a lot of items.

DESCRIPTION: This is a set of ten abrasive flap wheels, intended for use in hand-held motor tools such as a Dremel brand. The dimensions are 32mm (overall diameter) x 10mm (width of individual flaps) x 3mm (shaft diameter). --------------- POTENTIAL USAGE: I used this product as intended, in a hand-held Dremel tool. It worked as expected on wood and metal surfaces. As with any powered abrasive tool, it sheds a lot of specks of abrasive, so proper personal protection is essential for safety. I generally work under a plastic shield, but I removed the shield for the staged photo. The 1/8 (3mm) shaft also fits in a stationary drill press for constant medium-speed use. This worked well for smoothing edges of wood pieces. The shaft also fits in a portable cordless screwdriver for slow or variable-speed use, and would work well for irregular surfaces such as automotive panels, deburring pipes, or in locations without AC power. Since these tools are reversible, it is important to be sure the flap wheel is turning in the correct direction (as if you were tightening a screw). --------------- MY USAGE: I primarily use these for polishing and brightening the wheels of model train locomotives. These wheels must be kept spotless as they provide the electrical connection to the locomotive. While holding the locomotive in a cradle (see photo) I could easily address the wheel surfaces using a light touch. I had previously used a little wire brush wheel for this purpose, but that was a bit too aggressive for this use. --------------- Note the online listing for this product specifies 120 grit in the description, but 80 grit in the illustration; so not sure which is correct.

I find that these Rotary Flap Wheels are useful for smoothing the edges of hard plastic and metals. They are easy to use. They will last longer and do a better job grinding if you wet them down before use. Be sure to wear safety glasses because little bits of the material being ground, bits of sand, and water, will twirl off the rotating wheel.

Flap wheels are a staple in any rotary tool/flex shaft accessory kit; they offer an easy way to carve, smooth, and blend curved areas of a surface. The Rocaris 10-pack, at about $1 per wheel, is about one-half to one-third the price of my favorite name-brand flap wheels. As you might expect, theyre not quite as well put together as the more expensive versions: The glue joints can be a little uneven, the trim on the flaps can be kind of haphazard...but given the abuse these wheels get, its probably a minor issue. From what Ive seen in my first wheel, theyre not going to last as long as some, but again, at the price thats a minor issue. Less minor: They are positioned as 120-grit AlOx wheels, but as others have noted they seem more aggressive than that. The initial cutting is more like an 80-grit at least. However, after a couple hours use, they soften up to about where I expected them to be, out of the box. (Hint: If youre buying inexpensive abrasives, its ALWAYS a good idea to test them on a piece of scrap (metal, wood, glass, stone), and compare them to what youre used to.)

I love em... I have used a lot of these over the years. These are some of the best I have used. They hold up well and also cut well. I would recommend these for your small finishing or trimminmg jobs.

They work well so far, haven’t used them enough to know how well they will hold up but they do seem made decent, nothing to special or heavy duty . They work for what I needed them for so far. I tested them on sanding a few small pieces of wood I needed done and it worked. Will update review after use if anything changes.

Works perfectly for my small projects!

I use this type of flap wheel all the time and have always purchased the name brand ones. It was just too tempting not to try these when I could get 10 of them for less than the price of two of the others. I was worried about durability. While they do seem to wear down slightly faster than those I had been using these are still a huge bargain.
