3M 7000118230 Abrasive Paper Sheet 346U 60 Grit

Product Description

The 3M 7000118230 is an aluminum oxide abrasive paper sheet designed for sanding and surface preparation tasks common in trade and light industrial environments. Built on a D-weight paper backing, the sheet measures 2.75 inches x 17.5 inches and carries a 60-grit designation, placing it in the coarse-cut range suited for aggressive material removal. The open-coat construction reduces loading and clogging, allowing the abrasive to stay cutting longer between sheet changes. This sheet is sold individually and is used where consistent, repeatable stock removal is needed on wood, metal, filler, or composite surfaces.

This abrasive sheet is appropriate for finish preparation work in woodworking, automotive bodywork, HVAC cabinet fabrication, and general metal finishing. The 2.75-inch x 17.5-inch format is a standard profile compatible with many inline and oscillating sanding tools. At 60 grit, it is well suited for leveling rough surfaces, removing coatings, or shaping material before progressing to finer grits. Trade carpenters, sheet metal workers, body technicians, and general contractors are the primary installers and users of this product.

Installation Notes

This abrasive sheet is installed and used by carpenters, body technicians, and general tradespeople. Secure the sheet firmly to the sanding tool or block before use to prevent slipping during operation. Inspect the sheet periodically for loading or wear and replace when cutting action diminishes.
