Lawson Products launches Blue-Kote Load-Resistant Flap Discs

July 10, 2019
Lawson Products, Inc. announced the new Blue-Kote Soft Material Application Flap Disc, which grinds aluminum and all non-ferrous metals at high speed with minimal clogging or loading, while keeping the work surface temperature low for quality finishing.
Lawson Products, Inc. (NASDAQ:LAWS) a distributor of products and services to the MRO marketplace, announced the new Blue-Kote™ Soft Material Application Flap Disc, which grinds aluminum and all non-ferrous metals at high speed with minimal clogging or loading, while keeping the work surface temperature low for quality finishing.
The Type 27 abrasive disc is also used with composite materials such as carbon fiber and plastics. The 4.5-inch diameter disc is available in 40 and 60 grit. Produced exclusively for Lawson Products, the new Blue-Kote Soft Material Application Flap Disc is manufactured from tough aluminum oxide grain layered in a specially engineered net structure. The unique design provides high-performance cut rate and aggressive stock removal with surface blending action for excellent finish consistency. The soft, long-lasting disc that simultaneously grinds and finishes saves process time, eliminates the need for product changeover, and reduces total cost.     Because aluminum has a much lower melting temperature than other metals, keeping aluminum cool while grinding and finishing is a big challenge for welders and fabricators. The Blue-Kote disc cloth’s net structure resists clogging on soft materials, and its sanded surface stays cooler and avoids burning the work surface. Blue-Kote Soft Material Application Flap Disc at a glance:
  • Specially engineered disc incorporates aluminum oxide grain for excellent grinding combined with smooth, scratch-free finishing and cleaning
  • Non-loading
  • Grinds cooler than standard discs
  • Lasts up to 3X longer than conventional abrasives
  • Fewer disc changes required means greater job efficiency and cost savings
  • Can be used in pre- and post-weld operations
  • Applications and industries include automotive and body shops, agriculture, aviation, construction, energy, food & beverage, metal fabrication, shipbuilding, technology, and mass transportation
  • The latest addition to Lawson’s extensive catalog of cutting tools and abrasives solutions
