3M 7100046176 Hook and Loop Finishing Disc 5 Inch

Product Description

The 3M 7100046176 is a non-woven hook-and-loop abrasive finishing disc designed for fine finishing, scratch blending, and paint prep work on a range of materials. Built with an aluminum oxide abrasive grain and a 3D non-woven structure, it delivers consistent cut with long service life. The disc measures 5 inches in diameter and is rated for use up to 5000 RPM. It is suited for metal fabrication shops, body prep environments, and general finishing applications where a controlled, repeatable surface finish is required without undercutting or damaging the base material.

This disc is used on aluminum, stainless steel, plastics, wood, and fiberglass surfaces. It handles fine finishing, scuffing primer, blending scratches, and preparing surfaces for paint or coating. The non-woven construction conforms well to irregular or contoured surfaces, making it effective where flat abrasive pads fall short. The hook-and-loop backing allows fast disc changes during multi-step finishing processes, reducing downtime on production or repair work.

Key Features

• Non-woven 3D structure provides consistent finishes and extended disc life
• Aluminum oxide grain delivers reliable cut rate across metal, plastic, wood, and fiberglass
• Hook-and-loop attachment allows rapid disc changes during multi-step processes
• Load and heat resistance supports prolonged operation without glazing or degradation
• Conforms to irregular surfaces for a clean, uniform finish without undercutting base material
• Rated to 5000 RPM for use with standard random-orbit and disc finishing tools

Compatibility

Designed for use with hook-and-loop style angle grinders, random-orbit sanders, and finishing tools that accept 5-inch non-woven abrasive discs. Suitable for fine finishing, scuff sanding, and paint prep applications on aluminum, stainless steel, plastics, wood, and fiberglass.

Installation Notes

Ensure the backing pad on the tool is clean and free of debris before attaching the disc to maintain secure hook-and-loop engagement. Verify the tool RPM rating does not exceed 5000 RPM before operation. Wear appropriate PPE including eye protection and respiratory protection when dry-sanding or finishing. Inspect the disc before each use and discard if the abrasive layer shows tearing, delamination, or uneven wear.
