3M 7100007341 Scotch-brite Bristle Disc 3 Inch Ceramic

Product Description

The 3M 7100007341 is a Scotch-Brite Radial Bristle Disc designed for aggressive surface preparation and finishing work. Constructed with proprietary ceramic abrasive grain molded directly into flexible bristles, this disc removes paint, rust, weld burns, heavy oxides, adhesives, and other surface contaminants efficiently. Unlike wire brushes, the molded bristle design maintains its abrasive cutting property throughout the full service life of the disc. At 3 inches in diameter with a curved profile and center hole, it mounts to standard rotary tools and angle grinders used in fabrication and maintenance work.

This bristle disc is suited for surface prep tasks across metal fabrication, welding cleanup, and general industrial maintenance applications. The curved bristle configuration increases surface contact on flat and contoured workpieces alike, making it practical for both straightforward panel work and complex part geometries. It is commonly used by welders, pipefitters, machinists, and maintenance technicians who need consistent finish quality without switching abrasive media mid-task.

Key Features

• Ceramic abrasive grain molded into flexible bristles delivers aggressive cutting and consistent finish quality throughout disc life
• Curved disc profile increases surface contact compared to flat wire brushes
• Flexible bristles conform to contours and complex part shapes with less applied pressure
• Removes paint, stains, adhesives, weld burns, rust, heavy oxides, and surface contaminants
• Contains no wire filaments, reducing hazard from wire breakage during operation
• Bristle spacing optimized for coating removal and high-loading substance clearing

Compatibility

Designed for use with rotary tools and angle grinders accepting 3-inch diameter abrasive discs with a center hole mounting configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation and use should be performed by qualified tradespeople familiar with abrasive tool safety. Always power down and disconnect the tool before mounting or removing the disc. Verify the tool RPM rating does not exceed the disc RPM rating before operation. Eye protection and appropriate PPE are required when operating abrasive discs.
