3M 7010029936 Sanding Disc 5 Inch P240 Aluminum Oxide

Product Description

The 3M 7010029936 is a coated abrasive sanding disc designed for random orbital sanders and disc pads using hook-and-loop attachment systems. This 5-inch diameter disc runs at up to 12000 rpm and uses aluminum oxide abrasive at P240 grit. A precision multi-hole pattern evacuates dust more effectively than standard 5- or 6-hole disc designs, which increases cut rate and extends disc life. The open-coat, load-resistant backing resists clogging. A durable film backing provides tear resistance and delivers a consistent, close-tolerance finish across the work surface. Installers and finishing tradespeople rely on this disc for production sanding on a range of substrates.

This disc is suited for finish sanding applications in automotive body work, woodworking, metal fabrication, and general surface preparation. The P240 grit level is appropriate for fine material removal, scratch refinement, and surface smoothing before priming or final coating. The multi-hole pattern does not require alignment with the disc pad, so disc changes are fast during continuous work sessions. Each disc is rated for reuse over its service life, making it practical for high-volume or repetitive finishing operations.

Key Features

• Precision multi-hole pattern provides superior dust extraction without requiring hole alignment to the pad
• Open-coat, load-resistant abrasive layer resists clogging and maintains cut rate through the disc life
• Aluminum oxide grain cuts faster and lasts longer compared to traditional garnet abrasives
• Durable film backing is tear-resistant and supports a consistent, close-tolerance surface finish
• Hook-and-loop attachment allows quick disc changes and disc reuse
• Rated at 12000 rpm for compatibility with standard random orbital sanding equipment

Compatibility

Designed for use with 5-inch hook-and-loop disc pads on random orbital sanders rated for 12000 rpm or less. No hole alignment with the pad is required.

Installation Notes

Secure the disc firmly to the hook-and-loop pad before operating the sander. Inspect the disc for tears or worn abrasive before each use and replace if backing integrity is compromised. Do not exceed the 12000 rpm maximum speed rating. Operate sanding equipment in accordance with the tool manufacturer guidelines and applicable workplace safety standards.
