3M 7000118902 Psa Cloth Sanding Disc 6 Inch 80 Grit

Product Description

The 3M 7000118902 is a PSA cloth sanding disc designed for heavy-duty material removal in industrial and trade grinding applications. The 348D features a pressure-sensitive adhesive backing that mounts securely to a backup pad or steel platen and releases cleanly for fast disc changes. At 6 inches in diameter with an 80-grit aluminum oxide abrasive, this disc cuts aggressively and holds up through extended use. A resin bond system protects the abrasive layer from heat degradation, extending disc life under sustained load. Rated to 12000 RPM, it is suited for high-speed angle grinders and disc sanders used by metalworkers, fabricators, and finishing professionals.

This disc is appropriate for both wet and dry sanding operations across metal, wood, and composite surfaces. The X-weight cloth backing resists tearing and edge wear, making it a reliable choice for aggressive stock removal, surface preparation, and weld blending in fabrication shops, manufacturing environments, and general industrial settings. The 80-grit cut is typically used for initial surface leveling, rust and paint removal, and pre-finishing material prep before moving to finer grits.

Compatibility

Designed for use with backup pads and steel platens that accept 6-inch PSA-mount sanding discs. Confirm backup pad PSA compatibility before mounting.

Installation Notes

Installation and disc changes should be performed with the tool powered off and unplugged or locked out per standard lockout/tagout procedures. Ensure the backup pad or platen surface is clean and free of debris before pressing the PSA disc into full contact. Do not exceed the 12000 RPM rated speed. Inspect the disc for damage before each use and replace immediately if tearing, delamination, or abrasive loss is observed.
