Product Description

The 3M 7000045287 is a hard Roloc disc pad designed to hold abrasive discs during surface preparation, blending, and finishing operations. It mounts directly to tools with a 3/8-24 external threaded shaft, making it a straightforward drop-in for compatible grinders and die tools. The pad measures 3 inches in diameter and features a large hex nut style body with an 11/16-inch hex for secure installation and removal. At 0.132 pounds, it adds minimal weight to the tool setup. Installers and technicians in fabrication, HVAC sheet metal work, and general mechanical service will find this pad a standard consumable for disc-backed surface work.

This disc pad is suited for use in light industrial and trade environments where Roloc quick-change abrasive discs are the preferred system. It fits applications involving metal surface prep, weld blending, and deburring on panels, pipe, and structural components. The hard backing provides firm support for aggressive material removal when used with appropriate abrasive discs. It sells individually and is also available in a five-unit case for shop stocking.
