Klingspor Range — Quick Reference by Abrasive Type
Klingspor is the German precision abrasive manufacturer (130+ years). Engineering built around ceramic and zirconia alumina abrasives — higher material removal rates and longer life than conventional aluminium oxide, especially on stainless, hardened alloys and structural steel in high-duty cycles. AIMS stocks Klingspor for fabrication and maintenance welders.
| Abrasive Product | Klingspor Grain | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Cut-Off Discs | Ceramic, Zirconia, AlO | Cutting steel, stainless, alloy — angle grinder |
| Grinding Discs (Depressed Centre) | Ceramic, Zirconia | Surface grinding, weld dressing, blending — angle grinder |
| Flap Discs | Zirconia, Ceramic | Aggressive grinding + finishing combined — single disc operation |
| Fibre Discs (with Backing) | Ceramic, Zirconia | Light material removal, weld blending, fine finishing |
| Cloth Belts & Sheets | Zirconia, AlO, Ceramic | Belt linishing, hand sanding, surface prep |
| Sanding Discs (Hook & Loop) | AlO, Ceramic | Random orbital sanders — surface finishing |
| Mounted Points + Burrs | Carbide + abrasive points | Die grinder work, precision shaping |
Why ceramic / zirconia matters: these grains self-sharpen during use (microfracturing exposes fresh cutting edges) — they outlast conventional AlO by 3-5× on stainless and hardened steels. Premium price = lower cost-per-cut in production. For complete abrasives range across all brands, see abrasives. Companion: cut-off wheels, grinding wheels & accessories, sanding discs.
Klingspor Grinding Discs, Flap Discs & Abrasive Wheels
Klingspor is a German precision abrasive manufacturer with over 130 years in the industry -- producing grinding discs, flap discs, cutting wheels, fibre discs and coated abrasives used by fabricators, maintenance welders and metalwork specialists around the world. Klingspor's product engineering is built around ceramic and zirconia alumina abrasives that deliver higher material removal rates and longer wheel life than conventional aluminium oxide alternatives, particularly when working with stainless steel, hardened alloys and structural steel in high-duty cycles. AIMS Industrial stocks Klingspor abrasive wheels for angle grinder applications in maintenance and fabrication environments.
Klingspor Grinding Discs & Cutting Wheels
Klingspor's grinding and cutting wheels are formulated for aggressive stock removal and precise cutting on ferrous and non-ferrous metals -- with ceramic abrasives that outlast standard wheels.
- Klingspor Grinding Disc: High-performance depressed-centre disc in 100mm to 230mm diameters; ceramic-alumina abrasive for superior stock removal on structural steel, weld seams and surface scale with extended service life
- Klingspor Metal Cutting Disc: Ultra-thin cutting wheel for burr-free, accurate cuts in angle iron, bar stock and pipe; reinforced fibreglass mesh for controlled breakage resistance under side loading
- Klingspor Stainless Cutting Disc: Iron, sulphur and chloride-free formulation for contamination-free cutting of 304 and 316 stainless in food processing, pharmaceutical and marine fabrication environments
Klingspor Flap Discs & Fibre Discs
Klingspor's flap and fibre discs achieve an abraded finish quality that significantly reduces downstream polishing time on structural and decorative metalwork.
- Klingspor Ceramic Flap Disc: High-cut ceramic-grain flap disc in P40 to P120 grades for rapid grinding and finishing of stainless steel and hard alloys; self-sharpening grain maintains cut rate throughout disc life
- Klingspor Zirconia Flap Disc: Cost-effective zirconia alumina flap disc for mild steel, structural steel and aluminium; T27 flat design for surface grinding and T29 conical profile for weld seam blending
- Klingspor Fibre Disc: Polyester-backed fibre disc with aluminium oxide or zirconia grain; designed for use with firm backing pads on flat plate, pipe surfaces and curved profiles in maintenance grinding
