Arc Abrasives 73171 Shop Roll 24J Grit 2 in X 50 Yd

Product Description

The ARC ABRASIVES 73171 is a cloth-backed abrasive shop roll designed for deburring, edge cleanup, and surface preparation on pipe, bar stock, and machined metal components. The roll measures 2 inches wide by 50 yards long and carries a 24J grit designation, placing it in the coarse range suited for aggressive material removal. The tear-as-needed format lets a technician pull and tear a working length on the bench or in the field without scissors or a dispenser. At 2.97 pounds, the roll is dense enough for sustained shop use without being awkward to handle or store.

This shop roll sees routine use in HVAC, plumbing, and mechanical trade applications where cut pipe ends, threaded fittings, and machined parts need burr removal before assembly. A common scenario is cleaning up the cut edge of copper, steel, or galvanized pipe before fitting, threading, or welding. The coarse 24J grit bites into scale and sharp burrs quickly, reducing hand-finishing time. The cloth backing resists tearing during use and conforms lightly to curved or irregular surfaces.

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose abrasive shop roll for use on metal substrates including pipe, bar stock, and machined components in plumbing, HVAC, and mechanical fabrication applications.

Installation Notes

This product is handled by plumbers, pipefitters, HVAC technicians, and general mechanical tradespeople during pipe prep and metal finishing tasks. Tear the required length from the roll by hand and wrap or pull across the work surface as needed. Always deburr pipe and fittings before assembly to prevent damage to seals, threads, and mating surfaces. Wear appropriate cut-resistant gloves when working with freshly cut metal edges.
