High-Gloss Buffing Wheel | Flannel "Soft" | 180 mm
Material: FM230
Diameter: 180 x 25 mm
Bore Holes 14 - 40 mm
For bench grinders or angle grinders
Buffing wheels from EICKELIT consist of numerous layers of pure raw cotton fabric. They are connected to one another with high-quality stitching made of linen machine thread. Through precise calibration and random alignment of the layers, we guarantee low-vibration concentricity and an absolutely even polishing pattern.
With our choice of cotton fabrics, this proven standard polishing wheel is suitable for all metal polishing work steps - from pre-polishing to a high-gloss finish. Our first-class types of cotton make our EICKELIT professional polishing discs particularly effective and enable safe and dust-free work.
Molton FM230 is characterized by a fine roughness and consists of a raw cotton cretonne with a characteristic weight of around 200 g/m². The finish polishing discs made from this material are primarily used to give non-ferrous metals, coatings and plastics a high-gloss finish.

Protective Equipment when Polishing
When grinding and polishing, the work equipment used creates considerable health risks. It is therefore compulsory to wear suitable personal protective equipment for work safety when grinding and polishing. In particular, all rotating polishing and brushing tools may only be operated with suitable covers for reasons of occupational safety.
Wear eye / face protection
The fine dust emanating from polishing is harmful to the eyes. Flying parts can cause serious injuries to the face and eyes.
Wear respiratory protection
Fine dust contaminated with heavy metals and respirable, which can only be retained with suitable respiratory protection, is produced during polishing.
Wear protective clothing
Flying parts can cause sensitive injuries all over the body.
Wear gloves
In general, gloves should be worn when grinding and polishing. If there is a risk of being wound up (e.g. drills, processing small parts, etc.), gloves may be prohibited on the basis of a risk assessment.
Wear ear protection
Due to the noise exposure during grinding and polishing, it is necessary to wear suitable hearing protection on a regular basis.
