3M 7100031593 Psa Film Disc 268XA 5 Inch 12000 Rpm

Product Description

The 3M 7100031593 is a Trizact PSA Film Disc in the 268XA series, engineered for precision polishing and finishing work. It uses 3M microreplicated abrasive technology, which produces a fast, sustained cut rate and a consistent surface finish across the full life of the disc. The waterproof polyester film backing allows operation wet or dry, making it a versatile choice for multi-step finishing sequences. At a diameter of 5 inches and a maximum rated speed of 12000 RPM, it is sized for standard random orbital and disc sanders used by finishing professionals, fabricators, and skilled tradespeople.

This disc is suited for polishing and finishing applications on a range of substrates including glass, acrylic, composites, and painted surfaces. The pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) mount provides fast, secure attachment to PSA-compatible backing pads. It is commonly used in body shop finishing, optical component polishing, aerospace composite work, and precision surface preparation where consistent scratch patterns and controlled material removal are required. Discs in the 268XA series are color-coded by grade to simplify step identification during multi-step polishing sequences.

Compatibility

Designed for use with PSA-compatible backing pads accepting 5-inch coated abrasive film discs. Verify backing pad RPM rating meets or exceeds 12000 RPM before use.

Installation Notes

Installation and disc changes should be performed with the tool powered off and disconnected from its power source.
