3M 7000118229 Abrasive Sheet 80 Grit 2.75x17.5 Inches

Product Description

The 3M 7000118229 is an aluminum oxide abrasive sheet designed for sanding and finishing applications in trade and light industrial environments. Built on a D-weight paper backing with an open-coat construction, this sheet resists loading and delivers consistent stock removal across a range of surface materials. At 80 grit, it handles medium-material removal tasks such as leveling surfaces, scuffing primers, or preparing wood and composite substrates before finish coats. Licensed contractors, painters, and finishing carpenters are the primary installers and users of this consumable abrasive format.

This abrasive sheet measures 2.75 inches by 17.5 inches, a size suited for hand-sanding blocks and compatible hand-pad applications in finish carpentry, cabinet work, automotive bodywork prep, and general surface preparation. The open-coat aluminum oxide grain minimizes clogging on resinous or soft materials, extending usable sheet life compared to closed-coat alternatives. It is sold individually and is typically purchased in quantities of 100 or more for production use.

Key Features

• 80-grit aluminum oxide mineral for medium material removal and surface leveling

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose hand-sanding sheet compatible with standard sanding blocks and hand pads that accept 2.75-inch by 17.5-inch abrasive sheets.

Installation Notes

This is a consumable abrasive sheet requiring no tools or trade licensing for use. Secure the sheet firmly to a sanding block or hand pad before use to prevent slippage and uneven cut. Inspect the sheet regularly during use and replace when grit is visibly worn or loading becomes excessive. Work in a well-ventilated area and use appropriate respiratory protection when sanding materials that generate fine dust.
