3M 7010363751 Abrasive Disc 12 Inch 180 Grit Wet or Dry

Product Description

The 3M 7010363751 is a coated abrasive disc designed for professional finishing work in wet or dry sanding applications. Built around a silicon carbide mineral on a C-weight waterproof paper backing, this 12-inch disc delivers a fast cut and a smooth surface finish across a wide range of substrates. At 180 grit, it sits in the fine finishing range, making it well suited for final prep passes before coating or paint application. The pressure-sensitive adhesive backing allows quick attachment and removal on compatible random orbital sanders, keeping downtime low during production work.

This disc is used in automotive bodywork, marine refinishing, woodworking, and metal fabrication environments where surface prep quality directly affects the final coat. It handles paint, primer, gel coat, bare metal, and wood. The waterproof backing allows wet sanding, which reduces loading, extends cut life, and keeps the work surface cooler. Dry use is equally supported, giving the installer flexibility based on the job requirement. It is typically used by auto body technicians, marine finishers, and finish carpenters.

Key Features

• Silicon carbide mineral cuts faster than aluminum oxide and leaves a finer surface finish
• C-weight waterproof paper backing supports both wet and dry sanding without delamination
• 180 grit for fine finishing on paint, primer, gel coat, metal, and wood
• Pressure-sensitive adhesive backing for tool-free attachment to random orbital sanders
• Wet use reduces disc loading and extends usable life between disc changes
• 12-inch diameter sized for large-format orbital and disc sanders

Compatibility

Designed for use with random orbital sanders and disc sanders that accept 12-inch pressure-sensitive adhesive backed abrasive discs. Suitable for wet or dry use on paint, primer, gel coat, metal, and wood substrates.

Installation Notes

Ensure the sander backing pad is clean and free of debris before attaching the disc to achieve full adhesive contact. Power down the sander completely before mounting or removing the disc. When wet sanding, keep water flow controlled and avoid electrical hazards near the work area. Dispose of loaded or torn discs promptly to maintain cut quality and surface consistency.
