Merit Abrasives 08834184077 Overlap Disc 80 Grit 3in

Product Description

The MERIT ABRASIVES 08834184077 is a flexible slotted overlap disc designed for surface grinding, blending, and finishing applications. Built with coated aluminum oxide abrasive, this medium-grade disc delivers consistent stock removal and smooth finishes on metal and other hard surfaces. At 3 inches in diameter with 4 overlapping abrasive layers, the inward overlap design maintains continuous cutting action as the disc wears. The flexible construction allows the disc to conform to curved or contoured surfaces, making it well suited for weld blending, deburring, and edge work. It is installed via a 1/4-20 eyelet mount and is typically used by metalworkers, fabricators, and maintenance technicians.

This disc is intended for use with right-angle grinders or die grinders fitted with a compatible 1/4-20 mandrel or threaded hub. The 3-inch diameter and 80-grit medium grade make it practical for intermediate material removal where a finer finish is required after rough grinding. Typical applications include weld seam blending, surface preparation before coating, and contour finishing on mild steel, stainless steel, and similar metals. The slotted overlap construction helps reduce heat buildup during extended use, prolonging disc life compared to solid-face alternatives.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by metalworkers or fabricators using a compatible 1/4-20 threaded mandrel. Ensure the grinder is powered off and disconnected from its power source before mounting or removing the disc. Verify the mandrel thread engagement is secure before operation. Always observe applicable shop safety practices and wear appropriate PPE including eye and face protection when operating grinding equipment.
