PLANTEX

Universal flap discs cost no more than conventional flap discs with glass fibre backing, but offer you considerable added value:

  • longer service life and faster cutting rate due to the flexible backing, resulting in bigger contact surface area during grinding, improved heat dissipation and lower grinding temperatures
  • Top quality abrasives material - 100% pure zircon
  • Environmentally friendly backing disc that is better for the operators health; made of hemp fibre high tech compound
  • Safe to use - no harmful glass fibre dust or resin vapours are produced during the grinding operation or trimming of the discs 
    (smells similar to wood chips)
  • Plantex® discs can be worn down completely, the backing disc can be easily trimmed down - it produces soft, harmless swarf that can be disposed of as domestic waste
  • Hemp is a sustainable raw material which saves energy, resources and protects the environment
  • Hemp has an attractive CO2 energy balance and counteracts the Greenhouse effect
  • The strength of hemp in the high tech compound is by no means inferior to glass fibre
  • The high tech compound can be disposed of easily and is not a special waste like glass fibre discs
