3M 7100042435 Stikit D/f Low Profile Finishing Disc Pad

Product Description

The 3M 7100042435 is a low-profile finishing disc pad designed for use with 5-inch Stikit D/F discs with a 5-hole pattern. The pad features a one-piece threaded shank with a 5/16-24 external thread, which reduces vibration and improves rotational balance during sanding operations. A blue vinyl face sits over soft beige foam construction, giving the pad the conformability needed to follow contoured or curved surfaces and produce a consistent, refined surface finish. This pad is installed and used by finishing technicians, automotive body technicians, and trade professionals who require a controlled, low-vibration sanding platform for detail and finish work.

This disc pad is suited for finish sanding applications where surface quality is the primary concern. The soft foam backing allows the pad to conform to irregular or compound surfaces, making it appropriate for body work, painted surfaces, composite panels, and similar finish-critical substrates. It accepts standard 5-inch Stikit D/F 5-hole discs and threads directly onto compatible random orbital or finishing sanders with a 5/16-24 external threaded spindle connection.

Installation Notes

Power down and disconnect the sander from any power source before attaching or removing the disc pad. Thread the pad onto the sander spindle by hand until snug; do not over-torque the threaded connection. Ensure the Stikit disc is fully seated and centered on the vinyl face before resuming operation.
