3M 7000118872 Psa Cloth Sanding Disc 2 Inch 60 Grit

Product Description

The 3M 7000118872 is a PSA cloth sanding disc designed for heavy-duty material removal in metalworking, woodworking, and fabrication applications. The disc uses a pressure-sensitive adhesive backing that bonds securely to a backup pad or steel platen, allowing fast disc changes without adhesive residue. Aluminum oxide abrasive delivers aggressive cutting action and extended service life across a wide range of workpiece materials. A resin bond system protects the abrasive layer from heat buildup during sustained use. Rated to 15,000 RPM, this disc suits high-speed angle grinders and finishing tools used by fabricators, machinists, and finishing tradespeople.

This disc is suited for both wet and dry sanding operations on metal, wood, composites, and similar surfaces. The X-weight cloth backing resists tearing and edge wear under aggressive stock removal, making it appropriate for production-line and repair shop environments where disc durability and consistent cut rate matter. Each disc measures 2 inches in diameter, fitting compact backup pads and platens common in precision finishing and detail grinding work.

Compatibility

Designed for use with backup pads and steel platens accepting 2-inch PSA-style sanding discs in rotary and finishing tool applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by pressing the PSA backing firmly onto a clean, dry backup pad or steel platen surface. Ensure the backup pad or platen is free of debris and old adhesive residue before mounting a new disc. Always confirm the tool spindle speed does not exceed the 15,000 RPM disc rating before operation. Disc replacement and tool service should be performed by qualified personnel following applicable shop safety procedures.
