3M 7100031868 Hookit 255L 5 Inch P180 Film Disc

Product Description

The 3M 7100031868 is the Hookit 255L Gold Film Disc, a coated abrasive disc designed for fast cut rates and close-tolerance finishes on wood, paint preparation, and defect repair work. Built on a flexible film backing with an aluminum oxide abrasive grain, this disc delivers consistent results and greater tear resistance than comparable paper-backed discs. The open-coat construction increases aggressiveness, while a load-resistant coating keeps dust and swarf from clogging the abrasive surface during extended use. Rated to 12000 RPM, it is suitable for high-production finishing environments where disc longevity and surface consistency matter.

This disc is sized at 5 inches in diameter and carries a P180 grit rating, placing it in the fine-finishing range for surface prep and defect removal. It is commonly used in automotive refinishing, woodworking shops, and general paint prep applications. The Hookit attachment system allows fast disc changes without tools, making it practical for techs moving between grits or switching discs frequently during a production run. Sold in box quantities with a minimum order of 4 units.

Key Features

• Aluminum oxide abrasive grain delivers fast cut and extended disc life across a range of surfaces
• Flexible film backing provides consistent finish quality and resists tearing under production loads
• Open-coat construction increases cut aggressiveness and reduces loading
• Load-resistant coating prevents dust and debris from clogging the abrasive surface
• Hookit hook-and-loop attachment allows quick disc changes and supports disc reuse
• Rated to 12000 RPM for compatibility with standard random orbital and disc sanders

Compatibility

Designed for use with 5 inch Hookit hook-and-loop backup pads on random orbital sanders and disc sanders rated for hook-and-loop abrasive attachment.

Installation Notes

Mounting and removal requires a compatible 5 inch Hookit backup pad. Ensure the sander is powered off and unplugged before changing discs. Inspect the backup pad surface for debris or worn hooks before attaching a new disc, as a degraded pad face will reduce abrasive contact and finish consistency. Follow the sander manufacturer's RPM rating guidelines and do not exceed the 12000 RPM disc rating.
