3M 7000118892 Psa Cloth Sanding Disc 16 in 60 Grit

Product Description

The 3M 7000118892 is a pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) cloth sanding disc designed for heavy-duty material removal in industrial and professional finishing applications. Built on an X-weight cloth backing, this 16-inch disc runs at up to 12,000 surface feet per minute and uses aluminum oxide abrasive bonded with a heat-resistant resin system. The PSA backing adheres firmly to a compatible backup pad or steel platen and releases cleanly for fast disc changes without residue or downtime. Suitable for both wet and dry use, this disc is a go-to choice for fabricators, metalworkers, and finishing professionals who need consistent cut rate and long service life.

This disc is used in stationary disc grinder and large-platen sanding applications found in metal fabrication shops, woodworking facilities, and industrial production environments. The 60-grit aluminum oxide construction makes it appropriate for aggressive stock removal, weld blending, and surface conditioning on metal, wood, and composites. The X-weight cloth backing resists tearing under lateral load, making it well suited for high-pressure grinding passes. Technicians working with large-format disc equipment will find the 16-inch diameter covers significant surface area per pass, reducing overall cycle time.

Key Features

• Pressure-sensitive adhesive backing adheres to backup pads or steel platens and releases cleanly for quick disc changes
• X-weight cloth backing resists tearing and edge wear under aggressive pressure
• Aluminum oxide abrasive delivers fast cut rate and long service life across metal, wood, and composite surfaces
• Resin bond system protects abrasive layer from heat damage, extending disc life
• Rated for wet and dry sanding applications
• 16-inch diameter provides broad surface coverage per pass

Compatibility

Designed for use with large-format disc grinders and platen sanders that accept 16-inch PSA-backed sanding discs with a compatible backup pad or steel platen surface.

Installation Notes

Power down and lock out the disc sander or grinder before mounting or removing the disc. Ensure the backup pad or steel platen surface is clean and free of adhesive residue before applying the new disc to achieve full PSA contact. Verify the equipment is rated for the disc diameter and operating speed before resuming operation. Installation is typically performed by the machine operator or an industrial maintenance technician following the equipment manufacturer's guidelines.
