Layers of cloth are sewn together, making these wheels more rigid than those for curved surfaces.

Long, soft cotton strings conform to irregular surfaces and hold on to burring compounds longer than other wheels.

Holes in the hub allow air to flow through so the wheel stays cool and compound lasts longer. Also known as airway buffs.

Softer than flat-surface wheels, these conform to curves and contours.

Made from alternating strips of cotton and sisal, these wheels remove less material, leave fewer scratches, and conform better to curves and contours than flat-surface wheels. Also known as finger-style buffs.

Shaped for use on inside cylinders or on irregular surfaces.
