Merit Abrasives 08834163118 Quick-change Disc 36 Grit 2 in

Product Description

The MERIT ABRASIVES 08834163118 is a 2-inch ceramic coated quick-change abrasive disc designed for aggressive stock removal on metals including stainless steel, cast iron, and soft carbon steels. Using a Power-Lock Type S attaching system, it mounts fast to handheld disc sanders without tools. The SG R981 series disc is built on Y-weight polyester backing to resist edge wear during heavy use. A self-lubricating grain treatment reduces heat buildup at the work surface, extending disc life compared to aluminum oxide and zirconia abrasives. Rated to 30,000 RPM. Sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 100 units.

This disc is intended for trade and production environments where weld blending, deburring, and rapid material removal are routine tasks. Its 36-grit extra-coarse grade is suited for initial surface preparation on 300 and 400 series stainless steel, cast iron, and soft carbon steels. The red ceramic grain disc is compatible with handheld disc sanders using a Type S quick-change mounting system, making it a practical choice for fabricators, pipefitters, and metalworkers who cycle through abrasives at high volume.
