Arc Abrasives 73168 Shop Roll 150J Grit 2in X 50yd

Product Description

The ARC ABRASIVES 73168 is a cloth-backed abrasive shop roll designed for controlled, tear-as-needed use in metal finishing and deburring applications. The roll measures 2 inches wide by 50 yards long, providing an extended supply of abrasive material without the waste of precut sheets. The 150J grit designation places it in the fine range, making it well suited for smoothing surfaces and removing burrs after cutting or machining operations. Trades that regularly work with ferrous and non-ferrous metal stock will find this format practical for bench work and in-line finishing tasks. The cloth backing delivers flexibility and tear resistance that paper-backed abrasives cannot match in demanding shop environments.

This shop roll is commonly used in HVAC, plumbing, and general mechanical trades where pipe ends and small metal fittings must be deburred or dressed before assembly. A technician can pull and tear the needed length directly from the roll, wrap it around a file, mandrel, or finger, and work into tight profiles or around round stock. It is equally effective on flat surfaces when used with a backing block. The 50-yard length makes it practical for high-volume shop use as well as field service kits where multiple jobs must be handled from a single supply.

Key Features

• Tear-as-needed cloth backing eliminates the need for scissors or cutting tools
• 150J fine grit for burr removal and surface finishing after cutting or machining
• 2-inch width fits standard shop roll dispensers and handheld use
• 50-yard length provides extended supply for high-volume or multi-job use
• Flexible cloth substrate conforms to round pipe, fittings, and irregular profiles

Compatibility

Designed for general-purpose metal finishing and deburring on pipe, tube, and machined metal components across HVAC, plumbing, and mechanical fabrication applications.

Installation Notes

No power tools or special equipment are required for hand application. When used on cut pipe or fittings prior to soldering, brazing, or press-fitting, ensure all abrasive residue is wiped clean before joining. Wear appropriate hand and eye protection when deburring sharp metal edges. Dispose of used abrasive material in accordance with local shop waste guidelines, especially when working with copper, aluminum, or coated metals.
