3M 7100175465 Scotch-brite Xc-dn Non-woven Disc 4.5 in

Product Description

The 3M 7100175465 is a Scotch-Brite XC-DN Clean and Strip XT Pro Extra Cut disc engineered for aggressive surface preparation on metal. Built with aluminum oxide abrasive mineral woven into an open nylon web, this disc removes heavy rust, thick paint, corrosion, and weld scale while simultaneously scuffing the base material for better coating adhesion. The 4.5-inch diameter disc is rated at 13,300 RPM and weighs 1.95 pounds per minimum order quantity. It is used by fabricators, welders, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians who need fast, consistent material removal without loading or glazing the abrasive surface.

This disc is suited for use on ferrous and non-ferrous metals in both shop and field environments. Typical applications include weld cleanup, paint stripping before coating or priming, rust removal on structural steel, and surface conditioning on pipe and plate. The open web construction resists loading even when working on soft metals or heavily contaminated surfaces, making it a reliable choice for production environments where disc changes slow throughput.

Key Features

• Aluminum oxide mineral aggressively removes rust, thick paint, corrosion, and weld scale down to bare metal
• Open nylon web construction resists loading for consistent cutting action throughout disc life
• High-strength fibers resist chunking and maintain performance on edges and contoured surfaces
• High conformability increases contact patch area for faster material removal rates
• Rated at 13,300 RPM for compatibility with standard 4.5-inch angle grinders
• Low vibration profile reduces operator fatigue during extended use

Compatibility

Designed for use on standard 4.5-inch angle grinders and disc grinders with a matching RPM rating at or above 13,300 RPM. Suitable for surface preparation on ferrous metals, non-ferrous metals, and painted or coated substrates.

Installation Notes

This disc is installed and operated by fabricators, welders, and maintenance trades using 4.5-inch angle grinders. Always verify the grinder's maximum RPM rating meets or exceeds 13,300 RPM before mounting the disc. Inspect the disc for damage before each use and ensure the backing flange and guard are properly seated. Follow all applicable ANSI B7.1 safety standards for abrasive wheel mounting and personal protective equipment requirements including face shield and gloves.
