3M 7000118897 Psa Cloth Sanding Disc 50 Grit 12 Inch

Product Description

The 3M 7000118897 is a PSA cloth sanding disc designed for heavy-duty material removal in industrial and professional grinding applications. The disc uses a pressure-sensitive adhesive backing that bonds securely to a backup pad or steel platen and releases cleanly for fast replacement. Aluminum oxide abrasive at 50 grit delivers aggressive stock removal across a wide range of surfaces, and the resin bond system resists heat buildup to extend disc life. Rated to 2000 RPM, this disc is built for sustained use in demanding shop environments.

This disc is suited for metalworking, woodworking, and composite surface preparation where a coarse, fast-cutting abrasive is required. The X-weight cloth backing handles aggressive pressure without tearing or edge deterioration, making it appropriate for production grinding and finishing operations. The disc supports both wet and dry use, giving technicians flexibility across different workstation setups. Minimum order quantity is 10 discs per purchase.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by trade professionals or machine operators familiar with abrasive disc equipment. Power down and lock out the grinder before mounting or removing the disc. Confirm the machine spindle speed does not exceed the 2000 RPM disc rating before operation. Inspect the backup pad surface for debris before applying the PSA disc to ensure full adhesive contact.
