Built to Type 29 (T29) geometry with a 7\/8 inch arbor hole and 7 inch diameter, it runs at an angled profile that increases contact area and cut rate on flat and contoured surfaces. The disc uses 3M Precision-Shaped Grain, an engineered abrasive that fractures predictably to expose fresh cutting edges throughout the disc life. At 80 grit, it sits in the medium-coarse range, suited for weld grinding, beveling, and pre-paint surface prep where fast stock removal and a reasonably smooth finish are both required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis disc is intended for use on carbon steel, stainless steel, and other heat-sensitive alloys where conventional aluminum oxide or alumina zirconia discs may overheat the workpiece or wear prematurely. Typical applications include weld seam removal, edge blending, and general surface conditioning in fabrication shops, maintenance environments, and field metalwork. The flap construction allows individual cloth segments to wear away progressively, maintaining a consistent cut rate from first use to the end of disc life rather than degrading sharply as a bonded disc would.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType 29 angled flap geometry increases surface contact for faster stock removal on flat work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3M Precision-Shaped Grain cuts faster and outlasts conventional aluminum oxide and alumina zirconia abrasives\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProgressive flap breakdown exposes fresh mineral continuously, maintaining consistent cut rate throughout disc life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e80 grit rating suited for weld grinding, beveling, and pre-finishing surface prep\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with carbon steel, stainless steel, and heat-sensitive alloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e7\/8 inch arbor fits standard angle grinder spindles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with standard angle grinders accepting a 7 inch flap disc with a 7\/8 inch arbor.

Before mounting, confirm the grinder RPM rating meets or exceeds the maximum RPM rating of the disc. Inspect the disc for damage before each use and never operate a damaged or delaminating disc. Always wear appropriate PPE including a face shield, gloves, and hearing protection when operating grinding equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArbor Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 80\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDisc Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Type 29 (T29) Flap Disc\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbrasive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3M Precision-Shaped Grain (Coated)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbon Steel, Stainless Steel, Heat-Sensitive Alloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7.7 x 7.7 x 6.2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.268 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 638060059147\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3M\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7100177999\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"3M","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51344050225458,"sku":"7100177999","price":3024.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310519159.jpg?v=1782027827","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/3m-7100177999-flap-disc-7-inch-80-grit-type-29","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
