Casting Deburring & Finishing Tools

Large Abrasive Flapwheels

For larger scale casting flap wheels remove material quickly and leave an even finish. Follow up with abrasive nylon for a smoother, well blended finish.

Small Abrasive Flapwheels

Mounted abrasive flapwheels are better for smaller castings and work well where there is more difficult spaces to get in to or where smaller tools are available such as air tools and micromotors.

Interleaved Flapwheels

Interleaved flapwheels work well after an abrasive flapwheel to smooth and blend any scratches put in and will give an even finish. Will remove casting grain on softer metals such as aluminium.

Jewellers Finishing Wheels

Extremely popular with jewellers cleaning up castings they are generally very useful for smaller scale castings not just in precious metal.

Needle Files

For removing the sprue once its been trimmed the best tool is a needle file on a small scale. Also good for giving the casting a once over if there are imperfections of tough scale.

Micro-Mesh Flexifiles

Micro-Mesh works very quickly to give an even finish. Once the cast has been filed use a coarse flexifile to smooth the file lines and give an all over sand.

Unitized points work brilliantly for blending after sprue removal. Can also be used for an all over finish but works particularly speedily to blend where the sprue was.
