3M 7000045061 Psa Soft Pad 1.25 in for 3125 Nib Sander

Product Description

The 3M 7000045061 is a PSA soft interface pad designed for use with the 3M 3125 Nib Sander. It attaches to the Hookit skirt on the sander via a brushed nylon loop connection, seating securely without additional hardware. The vinyl face of the pad is engineered to accept 1.25-inch PSA-backed abrasive discs, specifically 3M 466LA abrasive discs. At 0.02 pounds, the pad adds minimal mass to the sanding assembly. Body shop technicians and finishing professionals use this pad as part of a precision nib-removal and surface-refinement workflow.

This pad is suited for paint finishing applications where controlled, localized abrasion is required. It is used in conjunction with PSA-backed abrasive discs to address surface nibs, dust inclusions, and minor imperfections in automotive and industrial finish coats. The soft interface construction allows the disc to conform slightly to the surface, promoting even abrasive contact on the work area.

Installation Notes

This pad is installed by pressing the brushed nylon loop side onto the Hookit skirt of the 3M 3125 Nib Sander until seated. Ensure the sander is powered off and disconnected from the air supply before changing the pad or disc. PSA-backed discs should be applied to the vinyl face on a clean, dust-free surface for proper adhesion. Remove spent PSA discs carefully to avoid tearing the vinyl face.
