Merit Abrasives 08834171161 Psa Disc 2 in 50 Grit Aluminum Oxide

Product Description

The MERIT ABRASIVES 08834171161 is a 2-inch PSA (pressure-sensitive adhesive) abrasive disc designed for grinding, blending, and surface preparation on a range of materials. It features aluminum oxide abrasive at a coarse 50 grit rating, making it suited for aggressive stock removal and rapid surface shaping. The cloth backing provides flexibility and durability under load, allowing the disc to conform to slightly irregular surfaces without tearing. At 0.01 pounds, it is a lightweight, single-use disc format. No vacuum holes are included. This disc is installed and used by machinists, fabricators, metalworkers, and general tradespeople performing surface prep or finishing work.

This disc is appropriate for use on metal, wood, and composite surfaces where coarse material removal is the goal. The PSA adhesive backing mounts directly to compatible PSA backup pads without clips or hardware. Its flexible cloth construction makes it well suited for contoured or curved workpiece surfaces in both shop and field applications. Sold individually, it fits both production and light-maintenance use scenarios.
