3M 7000118431 Ceramic Fiber Disc 60 Grit 2 in Tr

Product Description

The 3M 7000118431 is a 2-inch ceramic fiber disc designed for aggressive material removal on metal surfaces. Part of the 3M 982C Series, it features a resinoid bond and a coated abrasive construction on a fiber backing. The disc runs at up to 25,000 RPM and attaches via a TR Quick Change mount, making it a fast-swap option for angle grinders and disc grinders equipped with a compatible TR hub. At 60 grit, it falls in the medium grade range, suited for weld blending, surface conditioning, and rust or scale removal in fabrication and maintenance work.

This disc is used in metal fabrication shops, maintenance and repair operations, and field service environments where fast disc changes and consistent cut rate matter. The ceramic abrasive cuts cooler and longer than aluminum oxide alternatives, making it a practical choice for stainless steel, high-alloy steel, and other hard metals. The red fiber backing provides rigidity under pressure against flat or contoured workpieces.
