3M 7100105522 Square Abrasive Pad 80 Grit 2x2x3/8 in

Product Description

The 3M 7100105522 is a square abrasive pad designed for fast grinding, blending, and spot finishing in tight geometry work. Built on an X-weight cloth backing with aluminum oxide mineral, this pad delivers consistent cutting action through corners, fillets, and channels. At 2 inches x 2 inches x 3/8 inches and rated 80 grit, it suits medium-stock-removal tasks where a larger disc cannot reach. As the pad wears, the square corners expose fresh abrasive and maintain aggressive bite throughout the pad life. Metal fabricators, welders, and finishing technicians are the primary users of this pad type.

This pad is suited to corner weld grinding and cleaning, blending on channels and fillets, and spotting on flat surfaces where precise control is needed. The square geometry tracks smoothly in rotation while giving the operator direct access to inside corners and tight profiles. Typical applications include structural steel fabrication, sheet metal finishing, and general surface prep work in industrial and shop environments. Minimum purchase quantity is 50 units per order.

Key Features

• Square geometry provides biting action at corners while running smoothly in rotation
• 80 grit aluminum oxide mineral removes stock efficiently on ferrous and non-ferrous metals
• X-weight cloth backing adds durability under high-pressure grinding conditions
• 2 inches x 2 inches x 3/8 inches size accesses tight corners, fillets, and channels where larger abrasives cannot reach
• Self-renewing wear pattern exposes fresh abrasive as corners wear down

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement pad for use with compatible square pad holders and rotary tools accepting 2 inches x 2 inches square abrasive pads.

Installation Notes

Square abrasive pads are typically mounted and changed by metal fabricators or surface finishing technicians. Ensure the pad holder or backing plate is rated for the RPM of the tool in use before mounting. Power down and disconnect the tool from its power source before changing pads. Wear appropriate PPE including eye protection and gloves during pad changes and grinding operations.
