Arc Abrasives 71-31651 Surface Conditioning Disc 2in 40 Grit

Product Description

The ARC ABRASIVES 71-31651 is a 2-inch surface conditioning disc engineered for edge grinding on cold rolled mild steel and stainless steel sheet. It combines an extremely flexible backing with a 100 percent cotton abrasive construction, allowing the disc to conform closely to workpiece edges without gouging or loading. At 40 grit, it removes material efficiently while leaving a consistent scratch pattern suitable for downstream finishing steps. Metal fabricators, sheet metal workers, and maintenance welders are the primary users of this disc in production and repair environments.

This disc is suited for edge blending, deburring, and light surface preparation on cold rolled mild steel and stainless steel sheet. Its flexible construction makes it particularly effective where rigid discs would chatter or skip. The 40-grit designation places it in the coarse-to-medium range, appropriate for initial material removal and weld seam cleanup before finer conditioning passes. It is sold in minimum quantities of 100 per unit of measure.

Key Features

• Extremely flexible backing conforms to workpiece edges and contours
• 100 percent cotton abrasive construction for consistent cut and finish
• 40-grit coarse rating suited for initial edge grinding and weld cleanup
• Designed specifically for cold rolled mild steel and stainless steel sheet applications
• 2-inch diameter fits compact angle grinders and die grinders used in sheet metal work

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement surface conditioning disc for 2-inch compatible angle grinders and die grinders used in sheet metal fabrication and maintenance welding applications.

Installation Notes

Mount and dismount abrasive discs only while the tool is fully powered down and disconnected from its power source. Inspect the disc for tears, delamination, or damage before each use and discard any compromised disc immediately. Follow ANSI B7.1 safe practice standards for the use, care, and protection of abrasive wheels. Wear appropriate PPE including eye protection and gloves when operating grinding equipment.
