3M 7000118223 Hookit Abrasive Sheet 36 Grit 4.5x30 in

Product Description

The 3M 7000118223 is a Hookit abrasive sheet designed for aggressive stock removal in metalworking and woodworking applications. Built on an E-weight heavy paper backing, the sheet uses aluminum oxide abrasive grain bonded with a resin system that resists heat buildup during use. At 36 grit, this is a coarse-cut sheet suited for rapid material removal, leveling surfaces, or removing rust and scale. The Hookit attachment system allows fast sheet changes on compatible random orbital and straight-line sanders without the need for adhesive or clips.

This sheet is commonly used by metal fabricators, welders, and woodworkers who need a durable, coarse abrasive for initial shaping or surface prep work. Typical applications include grinding welds flush, removing mill scale, stripping paint or coatings, and leveling rough wood surfaces. The 4.5 inch x 30 inch format fits Hookit-compatible sanding blocks and file boards used in production and job-site environments. Both residential shop use and light industrial production runs are within its intended scope.

Key Features

• Aluminum oxide grain provides consistent cut rate and long service life on metal and wood

Compatibility

Designed for use with 3M Hookit-compatible sanding blocks, file boards, and sanders that accept hook-and-loop abrasive sheets in the 4.5 inch x 30 inch format.

Installation Notes

Attach the sheet to a clean, dry Hookit-compatible sanding block or power tool pad by pressing the hook-and-loop surface firmly into place before use. Inspect the backing pad regularly for worn hooks that reduce sheet retention. When using on power sanders, ensure the tool guard and dust collection are in place per the tool manufacturer's guidelines. Dispose of worn sheets before grain loading reduces cut efficiency and causes excess heat.
