3M 7000118904 Psa Cloth Disc 6 Inch 60 Grit 12000 Rpm

Product Description

The 3M 7000118904 is a PSA cloth sanding disc designed for heavy-duty material removal in professional grinding and finishing applications. The disc uses aluminum oxide abrasive, which cuts aggressively and maintains a long service life across a wide range of materials. A pressure-sensitive adhesive backing mounts directly to a backup pad or steel platen for fast, secure attachment and clean removal. A resin bond system protects the abrasive layer from heat damage, extending disc life during sustained use. Rated to 12000 RPM, this disc suits high-speed fixed and portable disc sanders used in metalworking, woodworking, and fabrication environments.

This disc is suited for both wet and dry sanding operations, making it versatile across finishing and stock-removal tasks in production and shop environments. The X-weight cloth backing resists tearing and edge wear under aggressive cutting pressure, which is important in high-volume production settings. At 6 inches in diameter with a 60-grit aluminum oxide abrasive, it is commonly used for weld blending, surface conditioning, and paint or coating removal by metal fabricators, woodworkers, and industrial maintenance technicians.

Key Features

• Pressure-sensitive adhesive backing adheres firmly to backup pads or steel platens and releases cleanly for fast disc changes
• X-weight cloth backing resists tearing and edge wear in aggressive applications
• Aluminum oxide abrasive delivers fast cutting action and long service life on a wide variety of surfaces
• Resin bond construction protects against heat damage and extends disc life
• Rated to 12000 RPM for compatibility with high-speed disc sanders
• Suitable for both wet and dry sanding applications

Compatibility

Designed for use with backup pads and steel platens that accept 6-inch PSA-style sanding discs on fixed and portable disc sanders rated to 12000 RPM or lower.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by pressing the adhesive face firmly onto a clean, dry backup pad or steel platen, ensuring full surface contact before operation. Verify that the sander spindle speed does not exceed the 12000 RPM disc rating before powering on the machine. Remove the disc by peeling cleanly from the platen edge to avoid adhesive residue buildup. Always wear appropriate PPE including eye protection and gloves when handling abrasive discs and operating disc sanders.
