3M 7000000560 Hook Loop Disc 1500 Grit 3 in 50 Pack

Product Description

The 3M 7000000560 is a hook and loop abrasive disc designed for fine surface finishing and polishing applications. Part of the 3M 260L Series, this disc uses aluminum oxide abrasive on a polyester film backing, which provides a consistent cut and smooth finish on the workpiece. At 1500 grit, the disc falls in the ultra fine grade range, making it suited for final-stage sanding, light surface prep, and defect removal before coating or finishing. The film backing resists tearing and conforms well to contoured surfaces. Each package contains 50 discs with a 3-inch diameter and no vacuum holes. Trade professionals and finishing technicians rely on this disc for controlled, consistent material removal at the final stages of surface prep.

This disc is used in automotive refinishing, metal polishing, composite surface finishing, and woodworking applications where a smooth, scratch-free surface is required before clear coat or protective finish application. The hook and loop attachment system allows fast disc changes without adhesive, making it practical for high-volume finishing work. No vacuum holes means it is suited for solid backing pads rather than dust-extraction orbital tools. The ultra fine 1500 grit makes it appropriate for wet or dry use on paint, primer, gel coat, and similar surfaces in both shop and field environments.

Key Features

• 1500 grit ultra fine aluminum oxide abrasive for final-stage surface finishing
• Polyester film backing resists tearing and conforms to contoured surfaces
• Hook and loop attachment for fast, tool-free disc changes
• 3M 260L Series construction for consistent cut rate and finish quality
• No vacuum holes — compatible with solid backing pads
• 50 discs per package for production and high-volume use

Compatibility

Designed for use with 3-inch hook and loop backing pads on random orbital sanders, rotary tools, and hand blocks without vacuum hole requirements. Compatible with solid, non-perforated backing pads in that disc diameter.

Installation Notes

Attach the disc to a clean, dry hook and loop backing pad, ensuring full contact across the disc face before use. Inspect the backing pad for worn hooks before mounting, as a degraded pad will cause the disc to detach during operation. For best results, apply light, even pressure and allow the abrasive to do the work — excessive force accelerates wear and can cause uneven scratch patterns. Replace the disc when cut rate noticeably decreases or when abrasive loading is visible.
