3M 7000120514 Disc Pad Face Plate Ribbed 7 Inches

Product Description

The 3M 7000120514 is a ribbed disc pad face plate designed to reduce heat buildup during grinding and finishing operations. The ribbed surface geometry allows air to circulate between the pad and the disc, resulting in a cooler running disc that extends abrasive life and reduces the risk of heat-related workpiece damage. At 7 inches in diameter, this hard-black face plate is built for use with 7 inch diameter fibre discs and is a direct-fit accessory for angle grinders and disc grinders used in metalworking, fabrication, and surface preparation trades.

This face plate is suited for professional grinding applications where consistent disc performance and thermal management matter. It is compatible with 4-1/2 inch disc pad hubs as well as 2-1/2 inch hubs, giving installers flexibility depending on the tool configuration on hand. Typical applications include weld blending, rust removal, and surface conditioning on steel and other metals in fabrication shops, construction sites, and maintenance environments.
