United Abrasives Inc 77447 Non-woven Hand Pad Medium

Product Description

The UNITED ABRASIVES INC 77447 is a maroon, medium-grit non-woven hand pad designed for general-purpose surface preparation and light cleaning tasks. Measuring 6.15 inches by 9 inches, it is sized for comfortable one-hand use on flat or contoured surfaces. The non-woven construction allows the pad to conform to irregular shapes without gouging or scratching, making it effective for removing light rust, cleaning oxidation, and brightening metal, painted, or coated surfaces. Sold in packs of 20, it is a standard consumable for HVAC technicians, plumbers, pipefitters, and general tradespeople who perform surface prep as part of routine service and installation work.

This hand pad is suited for light-duty surface conditioning where a wire brush would be too aggressive and fine abrasive paper would load up too quickly. Common applications include cleaning pipe fittings, deburring light scale from metal components, scuffing surfaces before adhesion or coating, and brightening copper, steel, or aluminum prior to connection or inspection. The 20-piece pack quantity supports crew-level or multi-job supply needs.
