3M 7000119256 Sanding Sheet 80 Grit Silicon Carbide

Product Description

The 3M 7000119256 is an 80-grit silicon carbide sanding sheet designed for dry material removal on a range of surfaces. Part of the 426U series, it uses a medium-grade silicon carbide abrasive bonded to a lightweight A-weight paper backing. The sheet measures 11.25 x 9.13 inches, making it a standard hand-sheet size suited for block sanding or palm-sander use. Load-resistant construction helps the abrasive stay open longer during use, reducing clogging and extending working life. Installers and finishing tradespeople working on drywall, wood, composite materials, or surface prep tasks will find this sheet a practical single-sheet consumable for controlled material removal.

This sanding sheet is intended for dry sanding applications only. It is commonly used in residential and light commercial finishing work, including surface preparation before priming or painting, deburring, and material shaping. The 426U series is a general-purpose line suited for hand-sanding blocks and compatible flat-bed or orbital pad holders that accept standard 9 x 11-inch sheets. Tradespeople in carpentry, drywall finishing, and general construction prep will find this a straightforward replacement consumable.

Installation Notes

No power shutoff is required for hand-sanding applications. Secure the sheet firmly in the sanding block or pad holder before use to prevent slipping during material removal. Do not use this sheet with water or wet-sanding compounds, as it is rated for dry use only. Dispose of worn sheets promptly — a loaded or torn sheet reduces cut efficiency and can scratch finished surfaces.
