3M 7100145406 Abrasive Film Disc 240 Grit 6 Inches

Product Description

The 3M 7100145406 is a coated abrasive film disc engineered for high-speed stock removal on a wide range of substrates. It uses 3M Precision Shaped Ceramic Grain, a triangular mineral structure designed to slice through material rather than gouge or plow like conventional abrasives. The result is a disc that cuts up to two times faster and lasts up to six times longer than standard abrasive discs. At 6 inches in diameter and 240 grit, this disc is suited to finishing and blending operations where controlled material removal and surface consistency matter.

This disc is used in metalworking, fabrication, and surface prep applications where stock removal rate and disc longevity are priorities. The hook-and-loop attachment system makes it compatible with standard hook-and-loop backup pads, allowing fast disc changes without tools. It performs across a wide variety of substrates including metals, composites, and painted surfaces, making it a practical choice for shop and field technicians who cycle through discs at volume.

Key Features

• Precision Shaped Ceramic Grain technology slices substrate for faster cut rates compared to conventional abrasives
• Cuts up to 2x faster and lasts up to 6x longer than conventional abrasive discs
• Film backing provides greater tear resistance and edge retention versus paper-backed alternatives
• Hook-and-loop attachment enables tool-free disc changes and fast pad swaps
• 240 grit designation suits finishing, blending, and fine stock removal tasks

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 6-inch hook-and-loop backup pads on random orbital and right-angle disc sanders.

Installation Notes

This disc is installed and replaced by hand on compatible hook-and-loop backup pads — no tools required. Ensure the backup pad surface is clean and free of debris before attaching the disc to maintain full contact and prevent premature release. Inspect the disc before each use and discard if torn, delaminated, or loaded. Follow applicable shop safety practices including eye protection and dust collection when grinding or finishing.
