Merit Abrasives 08834173022 Abrasive Disc 10 in 120 Grit

Product Description

The MERIT ABRASIVES 08834173022 is a 10-inch diameter abrasive disc designed for stationary disc sanders. Built with aluminum oxide abrasive material and a cloth backing, this medium-grade disc delivers consistent stock removal on wood, metal, and composite surfaces. At 120 grit, it is suited for finishing passes that require controlled surface smoothing without aggressive material removal. The flexible construction allows the disc to conform slightly under pressure, reducing chatter and improving contact with the workpiece. Weighing 0.5 pounds, it is a straightforward drop-in consumable for shop and trade use.

This disc is intended for use on stationary disc sanders in woodworking shops, fabrication facilities, and general trade environments. The 120-grit aluminum oxide surface makes it appropriate for finish sanding wood panels, deburring metal edges, and smoothing fiberglass or composite parts. The cloth backing provides durability under the sustained load of stationary machine operation. No vacuum holes are included, making it compatible with solid disc sander platens. It is sold individually and is a direct consumable replacement for worn discs in professional shop setups.

Installation Notes

Power down and lock out the disc sander before replacing the abrasive disc. Remove the worn disc and clean the platen surface of any adhesive residue before applying the replacement. Use appropriate contact adhesive or a pressure-sensitive backing system as required by the sander manufacturer. Verify the disc is fully seated and free of air pockets before returning the machine to service.
