3M 7100010694 Hook Loop Disc 100 Grit 5 in Aluminum Oxide

Product Description

The 3M 7100010694 is a 5-inch hook and loop abrasive disc designed for surface preparation, finishing, and material removal in professional trade and fabrication environments. Built on a C-weight paper backing with a coated aluminum oxide abrasive, this disc delivers consistent cut and finish at 100 grit. The flexible backing conforms to contoured surfaces, making it suitable for both flat and shaped workpieces. It attaches and releases quickly on any compatible hook and loop random orbital or disc sander. Installers and finishing technicians in HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general mechanical trades rely on abrasive discs like this for deburring, surface prep before bonding, and final finish work.

This disc is used in residential and light commercial trade applications where surface preparation is required prior to painting, coating, adhesive bonding, or welding. At 100 grit, it sits in the medium abrasive range, effective for scuffing metal, wood, and composite surfaces without aggressive material removal. The gold disc color aids visual tracking of wear. No vacuum holes are included, so this disc is intended for use on non-vacuum or standard backing pads. It is sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 250 units, making it appropriate for shops and contractors purchasing in bulk.

Installation Notes

Attach the disc firmly to a compatible 5-inch hook and loop backing pad before starting the tool. Inspect the disc for tears or loading before each use and replace when abrasive wear is evident. Keep the disc and sander away from water and solvents unless the tool is rated for wet use. Dispose of used abrasive discs in accordance with local regulations if used on materials containing lead paint or hazardous coatings.
