3M 7100141886 Scotch-brite Clean and Strip Disc 4 Inch

Product Description

The 3M 7100141886 is a Scotch-Brite Clean and Strip Disc engineered for aggressive surface preparation in metalworking applications. Built from a non-woven, smear-resistant web material impregnated with extra coarse (XCS) silicon carbide abrasive, it cuts quickly through paint, rust, coatings, and corrosion without distorting or undercutting the base workpiece. The 4-inch diameter disc runs at up to 6000 RPM and is designed for load resistance and heat resistance, which helps maintain consistent cutting performance from the first pass to the last before the disc is spent.

This disc is used in fabrication shops, maintenance facilities, and field metalworking tasks where surface contaminants or coatings must be removed before welding, painting, or inspection. Its thin profile allows access to tight corners and recessed areas that wire brushes cannot reach effectively. Typical applications include rust and mill scale removal, coating strip-out, and weld prep on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Trade professionals in structural steel, pipe, and sheet metal work regularly specify non-woven silicon carbide discs for this stage of surface conditioning.

Key Features

• Extra coarse (XCS) silicon carbide abrasive delivers aggressive cutting action on paint, rust, and coatings
• Non-woven, smear-resistant web construction provides uniform wear over disc life
• Load and heat resistance supports prolonged operation with consistent finishing results
• Thin disc profile accesses tight corners for thorough stripping and surface prep
• Removes surface contaminants without altering the geometry of the workpiece
• Provides greater surface coverage than wire brushes for faster material removal

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement-style non-woven disc for use with angle grinders and disc sanders that accept 4-inch arbor-mount or hub-mount abrasive discs rated to 6000 RPM or higher.

Installation Notes

A licensed or trained metalworking technician should verify that the angle grinder or disc tool is rated for 6000 RPM before mounting this disc. Power down and disconnect the tool from its power source before mounting or removing the disc. Always confirm the disc is seated and secured per the tool manufacturer's instructions before operation. Wear appropriate PPE including eye protection and gloves during use.
