3M 7100104948 Flap Disc 7 Inch 60 Grit Right Angle

Product Description

The 3M 7100104948 is the Cubitron II 969F flap disc, a right-angle abrasive disc engineered for medium to high-pressure metal grinding applications. Built with 3M Precision-Shaped Grain on a durable polyester backing, this 7-inch diameter, 60-grit disc delivers a consistently fast cut rate and smooth finish throughout its service life. As individual flaps wear down, fresh mineral is continuously exposed, maintaining cut performance from first use to last. Weighing 2.795 pounds, it is well-suited for demanding production environments where both speed and surface quality matter.

This flap disc is designed for aggressive metal removal tasks including beveling, weld removal, and edge deburring on a variety of ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The right-angle configuration makes it compatible with standard right-angle grinders commonly used by fabricators, welders, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians. Its polyester backing handles high unit pressure without delaminating, and the disc geometry reduces the risk of gouging compared to fiber discs and bonded abrasive wheels, making it a practical choice when finish quality is a factor alongside material removal rate.

Key Features

• 3M Precision-Shaped Grain provides an exceptionally fast cut rate for increased productivity
• Durable polyester backing withstands high unit pressure applications without failure
• Self-refreshing flap design exposes fresh mineral continuously for a consistent cut rate over the disc life
• Lower risk of gouging compared to fiber discs and bonded wheels
• Suited for applications where surface finish quality is required alongside aggressive material removal
• Versatile performance across beveling, weld removal, and edge deburring tasks

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard right-angle grinders accepting 7-inch diameter flap discs. Suitable for grinding and finishing on a variety of metals.

Installation Notes

Install only on right-angle grinders rated for the disc diameter and operating speed. Ensure the grinder is fully powered down and unplugged before mounting or removing the disc. Verify that the disc is properly seated and the retaining nut is secure before operation. Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment including eye protection and gloves during use.
