3M 7000046093 Disc Holder Adapter 5/8-11 to 3/8-24

Product Description

The 3M 7000046093 is a disc holder adapter designed to convert a sander with a 3/8-24 external threaded shaft to a 5/8-11 external threaded shaft. This compact adapter allows technicians and tradespeople to expand the usability of existing sanding equipment without replacing the tool itself. It accepts 5/8-11 disc holders, making it compatible with a wide range of abrasive disc setups. At 0.08 pounds, the adapter is lightweight and straightforward to install. It is sold individually and is well suited for shops or field crews that need to quickly reconfigure grinding and sanding tools for different applications.

This adapter is used in fabrication, metalworking, woodworking, and general surface prep applications where sanders or grinders are equipped with a 3/8-24 threaded spindle. When a 5/8-11 disc holder is required, this adapter bridges the thread difference without requiring a new tool. It is a practical solution for contractors, maintenance technicians, and shop professionals who work with multiple tool platforms and need interoperability between thread standards.
