Roll and Lock type Disk

Post by scheinerj » Thu May 11, 2017 6:12 pm

I was wondering what are Roll and Lock type disks (pertaining to flap and grinding disks)
I found 10, 2" size flap disk in my basement that are brand new and am wondering how I can use them.

Do i put them in a drill ? I assume I need something else to use them.

Generally they are best used on an air powered tool that runs fairly high speed, 2" on a drill will work, but it's a slow tedious (and heavy) tool to use.
An Air Die Grinder if you have an air compressor can be had for around $20 at Harbor Freight and speed along any sanding. You DO need the shaft to attach the discs to the chuck though.
