3M 7000045702 Hookit Disc Pad 178mm M14-2.0

Product Description

The 3M 7000045702 is a Hookit disc pad designed for use with 7-inch hook-and-loop or Hookit abrasive discs in professional sanding applications. The pad features a metal hub for durability, medium-density foam construction, and a long tapered edge that allows flexibility across uneven surfaces. The M14-2.0 internal thread connects to sanders equipped with an M14-2.0 external threaded shank, making it a direct fit for compatible angle grinders and random orbital sanders used in bodywork, fabrication, and surface preparation.

This disc pad is suited for automotive body shops, metal fabrication facilities, and woodworking environments where consistent surface finishing is required. It accommodates 178 mm diameter hook-and-loop discs and is typically installed by auto body technicians, metalworkers, and finishing trades professionals who require reliable disc retention and controlled flexibility during aggressive or finish sanding passes.
