3M 7000120560 Disc Pad Holder 3 in 1/4 in Shank Model 923

Product Description

The 3M 7000120560 is a disc pad holder designed to back abrasive discs during grinding, blending, and finishing operations. Model 923 accepts 3-inch abrasive discs and features a 1/4-inch shank for use with standard die grinders, drill presses, or portable rotary tools. This holder provides a stable, consistent backing surface that ensures even disc contact and uniform material removal. It is sold in a case quantity of 10 units, making it a practical stocking item for shops that run abrasive operations on a regular basis. Installation is tool-free — the shank mounts directly into any compatible 1/4-inch chuck or collet.

This disc pad holder suits metal fabrication, automotive body work, weld blending, and general surface preparation tasks. It is commonly used by sheet metal workers, auto body technicians, pipefitters, and maintenance trades who require controlled material removal on curved or flat surfaces. The 3-inch disc size is well suited for tight-access grinding and finishing where a larger disc would be impractical.
