Forney Industries 71746 Quick Change Sanding Disc 36 Grit

Product Description

The Forney Industries 71746 is a quick change sanding disc designed for rapid material removal in grinding and surface preparation applications. At 3 inches in diameter and 36 grit, this disc is suited for aggressive stock removal, weld cleanup, and rust or scale removal on metal surfaces. The quick change mount eliminates the need for tools during disc swaps, reducing downtime during production or fieldwork. Sold in a pack of 25, this disc is a standard consumable for welding shops, fabrication environments, and maintenance crews working with angle grinders or dedicated quick change tools.

This disc is used in metal fabrication, structural steel work, pipeline maintenance, and general industrial applications where fast, coarse surface preparation is required. The 36 grit rating makes it appropriate for initial passes on bare metal, removal of heavy oxidation, or blending weld beads before finishing steps. It is a fit for trade professionals who need consistent, reliable abrasive performance across a full workday without stopping to change tooling.
