3M 7000118742 Clean Sanding Shroud 6 Inch Orbital Sander

Product Description

The 3M 7000118742 is a vacuum shroud designed for use with 6-inch random orbital sanders during clean sanding operations. The shroud fits over the backup pad and creates the correct clearance between the pad and the shroud housing, allowing efficient dust and debris collection when connected to a vacuum source. It shields the operator from moving parts during sanding and works in conjunction with 6-inch Clean Sanding Disc Pads to reduce airborne particulate at the source. This type of accessory is typically installed by finish carpenters, auto body technicians, or general construction trades requiring low-dust sanding environments.

This shroud is suited for applications where dust control is a priority, including interior finish work, surface prep before painting or coating, and environments where OSHA silica dust regulations or general housekeeping standards apply. It is intended for use on 6-inch random orbital sanders paired with the corresponding 6-inch Clean Sanding Disc Pad to achieve proper fitment and airflow performance.

Compatibility

Designed for use on 6-inch random orbital sanders when using 6-inch Clean Sanding Disc Pads. Confirm sander model and backup pad diameter before installation.

Installation Notes

Power down and disconnect the sander from any power source before attaching or removing the shroud. Ensure the backup pad diameter matches the shroud diameter for proper fitment and airflow. Connect the shroud port to a compatible vacuum or dust collection system before beginning sanding operations. Follow the sander and shroud manufacturer guidelines for secure attachment to avoid interference with pad rotation.
