Surface preparation in industrial and trade applications is made easy with our high-performance clean and strip discs. Surface preparation is an often overlooked step, but it is the foundation on which everything else will either succeed or fail. Our clean and strip discs make sure your surface is spotless and ready for the next step.
These discs swiftly remove paint, rust, coatings, and adhesives, all while preserving the base material. Suitable for metal, wood, and fibreglass surfaces, they deliver a smooth finish for automotive, metalworking, and marine projects.
Stripping discs are abrasive tools designed for the rapid removal of unwanted coatings and corrosion without significantly altering the base material. They come in many different types, such as silicon carbide, aluminium oxide, and ceramic grain-based abrasives.
Silicon carbide discs remove paint, rust, and coatings from metal, wood, and fibreglass with a sharp cutting action. Aluminium oxide is durable for general-purpose stripping, while ceramic provides aggressive material removal for tough surfaces.
Their open web construction, typically non-woven nylon or polyfibre, resists loading by preventing debris buildup and reducing heat. This design also allows discs to adapt to irregular surface contours for consistent results.
Great for angle grinders and other power tools, they quickly remove paint, rust and light mill scale without damaging the base material. This makes them an essential tool for surface preparation in various industrial applications.
What is the main difference between clean and strip discs and traditional wire brushes for rust removal?
Clean and strip discs are a safer, more efficient method for rust and paint removal compared to traditional wire brushes, which are more prone to removing the base material and causing damage.
Can these stripping discs be used on delicate surfaces without causing damage?
No. These stripping discs can damage delicate surfaces.
What safety precautions should be taken when using industrial clean and strip discs?
You should always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) such as safety glasses, gloves, and hearing protection when using industrial cleaning and strip discs.
Do you offer clean and strip discs suitable for angle grinders and other power tools?
Yes, we do! Check our abrasives for more information.
