3M 7010294771 Hook Loop Abrasive Disc 4 in Aluminum Oxide

Product Description

The 3M 7010294771 is a 4-inch hook and loop non-woven abrasive disc designed for surface conditioning, blending, and light material removal. Built on a flexible non-woven construction with aluminum oxide abrasive, this disc delivers consistent cut and finish across metal, wood, and composite surfaces. The medium-grade abrasive rating makes it well suited for intermediate stock removal and surface prep work. Rated to a maximum of 13,000 RPM, it is compatible with standard random orbital and disc sanders equipped with hook and loop backing pads. No vacuum holes are included on this disc.

This disc is used in metalworking, fabrication, woodworking, and general surface preparation applications. The flexible non-woven construction conforms to irregular and contoured surfaces, making it a practical choice for finishing welds, removing mill scale, or preparing surfaces before coating or painting. It is commonly used in light industrial shops, maintenance facilities, and field service environments where a maroon-colored medium-grade disc is specified for surface conditioning tasks.

Installation Notes

This disc is installed and replaced by hand without tools — press firmly onto a clean hook and loop backing pad to ensure full surface contact before operating. Inspect the backing pad for worn hooks before attaching a new disc, as a degraded pad can cause disc slippage at speed. Always confirm the tool's rated RPM meets or exceeds the disc's 13,000 RPM maximum before use. Follow applicable workplace safety guidelines and wear appropriate eye and hand protection during operation.
