Norton 69957370204 Fiber Disc 80 Grit 7 Inches Ceramic Alumina

Product Description

The NORTON 69957370204 is a 7-inch ceramic alumina fiber disc designed for aggressive material removal on metal, welds, and surface conditioning applications. Built on a fiber backing with a resinoid bond, this 80-grit coated abrasive delivers consistent cut rate and durability under sustained load. The ceramic alumina grain self-sharpens during use, extending disc life compared to conventional aluminum oxide options. Rated to 8,600 RPM, it is engineered for use with standard right-angle grinders fitted with a 7/8-inch arbor hole backing pad. Trade professionals in metal fabrication, structural steel work, and maintenance welding rely on this disc for fast stock removal and surface blending.

This fiber disc is suited for professional use in industrial and commercial environments where consistent abrasive performance on ferrous and non-ferrous metals is required. The F970 series disc is appropriate for grinding, deburring, and weld blending on flat and contoured workpieces. It attaches via a standard 7/8-inch arbor hole, making it compatible with common angle grinder setups used by fabricators, ironworkers, and maintenance technicians. Sold individually, with a minimum order quantity of 25 units.
