3M 7000000561 Hookit Film Disc 3 Inch P1200 Grit Ao

Product Description

The 3M 7000000561 is a Hookit film-backed abrasive disc designed for high-finish auto body sanding applications. Built on a tear-resistant film backing, the disc uses aluminum oxide mineral to deliver a fast cut with consistent surface results through the sanding stroke. At 3 inches in diameter and P1200 grit, it targets fine finishing work including blending, scuffing, paint prep, and removing minor paint defects. The Hookit attachment system allows for fast disc changes and supports disc reuse, reducing downtime during production work. Licensed tradespeople and auto body technicians are the primary installers.

This disc is suited for light-cut finishing stages in automotive refinishing environments, both in professional body shops and production detail work. The P1200 grit rating places it in the fine finishing range, appropriate for final paint prep and defect removal on clear coat and base coat surfaces. The aluminum oxide cutting surface performs consistently from the first pass through the life of the disc, and the film backing resists tearing under lateral sanding pressure. Many discs in the 260L series feature a 5-hole or 6-hole dust extraction pattern that reduces disc loading and helps maintain a cleaner cut surface.
