Norton 66261170182 Hook Loop Abrasive Disc Coarse 7 in

Product Description

The NORTON 66261170182 is a 7-inch non-woven hook and loop abrasive disc designed for surface conditioning, blending, and finishing applications in metalworking and fabrication environments. Built with an aluminum oxide abrasive on a flexible nylon backing, this disc delivers consistent cut and surface contact across irregular or contoured workpieces. The coarse grade removes scale, light rust, and surface contaminants efficiently. Rated to a maximum of 8,500 RPM, it is suited for use with standard angle grinders and random orbital sanders equipped with hook and loop backing pads. Installation and removal are tool-free thanks to the hook and loop attachment system.

This disc is used in metal fabrication shops, maintenance and repair facilities, and general industrial environments where surface preparation is required before welding, coating, or painting. The flexible nylon backing allows the disc to conform to curved and uneven surfaces, making it practical for work on pipe, structural steel, and sheet metal. No vacuum holes are included, so it is intended for use without dust extraction attachment. Coarse grade performance makes it appropriate for aggressive material removal and weld blending rather than fine finishing work.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist, fabricator, or qualified trade professional using compatible power tools. Before mounting the disc, ensure the tool is unplugged or the battery is removed and confirm the backing pad is clean and free of debris that could prevent secure hook and loop engagement. Never exceed the 8,500 RPM maximum speed rating marked on the disc. Inspect the disc for tears or delamination before each use and discard any disc showing visible damage.
