Star Flex – flat flap disc T27 125 mm zirconia grain 40 INOX
Description
Star Flex – flat flap disc T27 125 mm zirconia grain 40 INOX

Star Flex T27 flat flap disc with zirconia grain 40 is a tool designed for intensive machining of stainless steel (INOX) and structural steel. The zirconia coating provides self-sharpening properties — the grain exposes new cutting edges during operation, resulting in significantly longer lifespan compared to aluminium oxide discs. For installation and welding crews, this means fewer downtime for disc changes and lower consumable material costs per project.
Star Flex zirconia disc advantages
- Self-sharpening zirconia grain — maintains constant cutting aggressiveness throughout service life
- Even wear across the entire working surface — no uneven indentations and scratches
- Low working pressure — less operator fatigue during long grinding sessions
- Fibreglass backing — rigid, lightweight, effectively absorbs vibrations and provides greater tool control
- Suitable for working with stainless steel (INOX) — does not cause contamination of the machined surface

Flat construction (type T27)
The flat version disc offers greater contact surface with the machined material. This makes it ideal for operations requiring lower pressure and greater control, e.g. smoothing large flat surfaces. The optimal working angle is 0–15° relative to the surface, making it an excellent choice for grinding sheets, profiles and steel structural elements in flat position.
Applications
- Grinding and removing welds after welding
- Edge bevelling (chamfering) of sheets and profiles
- Removing rust, dirt and old coatings (varnish, paint, adhesive)
- Smoothing sharp edges and corners
- Surface machining of stainless steel without leaving scratches
