3M 7010029944 Hook Loop Disc 6 in 280 Grit Aluminum Oxide

Product Description

The 3M 7010029944 is a 6-inch hook and loop abrasive disc from the 3M 360L Series, designed for fine finishing and surface preparation tasks. It features an aluminum oxide abrasive on a film backing, delivering consistent cut and a smooth finish across a range of substrates. At 280 grit, this disc is suited for finish sanding, light material removal, and pre-finishing work. The film backing provides durability and resistance to tearing during extended use. A maximum operating speed of 12,000 RPM makes it compatible with most standard random orbital and disc sanders used in trade and industrial applications.

This disc is appropriate for use in HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general mechanical service environments where surface prep work is required before sealing, bonding, or coating. The 280 grit rating targets fine sanding applications such as smoothing welds, preparing pipe fittings, or finishing metal surfaces prior to assembly. The purple film backing is a hallmark of the 3M 360L Series, which is built for precision finishing on metal, wood composite, and painted surfaces. Vacuum holes are included to support dust extraction when used with compatible vacuum-equipped sanders.
