The Standard Abrasives Surface Conditioning RC Belt saves time preparing workpieces for final finishes and coatings by performing one-step prep work. Constructed with enhanced edge durability and flexibility, combined with high initial and extended cut rate, this is a great all-around belt for deburring, blending, cleaning and finishing on composites and softer metals.

The conformability and consistent performance of the Standard Abrasives Buff and Blend Flap Brush makes it ideal for blending, cleaning, deburring and finishing on stainless steel, brass and aluminum, especially where a uniform and long line brushed finish is desired.

3M Trizact Cloth Belt 217EA uses proprietary microreplication technology in which micron-graded aluminum oxide particles are formed into tiny pyramids of abrasive mineral and then coated on a JE-weight rayon backing. As these pyramids wear, fresh, sharp mineral is continually exposed to produce a consistent cut and a predictable, fine finish.

Scotch-Brite Cut and Polish Wheels are built for aggressive blending and finishing applications. Harder than other finishing wheels, Cut and Polish Wheels are good for defect removal or heavy scratch blending and produces a finish with a tight scratch pattern.

Scotch-Brite Metal Finishing Wheel combines conformability with consistent abrasive cutting action to provide uniform brushed stainless and satin finishes. The Metal Finishing Wheel is also used effectively to blend and match #3 or #4 mill finishes on stainless steel and to create brushed or satin finishes on items such as cutlery, appliance trim, builders hardware, and plumbing fixtures.

Scotch-Brite EX3 Deburring Wheel is a convolute-constructed, hard, durable deburring wheel suited for applications where edge retention is a must. The wheel performs best when consistently presented with a sharp edge or metal burrs. A unique resin system resists smearing and heat buildup.

Scotch-Brite Light Coating Removal Disc removes light, unwanted coatings from your substrate. Be it paint, rust, sealant or varnish, the unique properties of Scotch-Brite non-woven technology, like load resistance, make this abrasive a good match for these projects. The abrasive is designed to fight dust and debris, so you can remove coatings and get consistent results, part after part.

The Scotch-Brite Light Deburring Roll is a very fine grade sheet roll ideal for lightweight deburring and finishing on all types of metal. Moderately conformable, the dense web construction offers increased wear resistance and extended use for applications that require a less aggressive cut, such as cleaning and surface finishing.

Scotch-Brite Clean and Finish Discs combine conformable material and abrasive mineral to effectively blend, clean, and polish surfaces on a wide variety materials such as aluminum, stainless steel, plastics, wood, and fiberglass; producing a clean, consistent finish without undercutting or damaging the base material.

Scotch-Brite EXL Unitized Wheels feature a soft, conformable consistency that effectively smooths, deburrs and finishes the edges of metal alloys, as well as many plastics and composites. There are a variety of densities and grades starting from a very soft 2 density for applications requiring conformability to a hard, aggressive 8 density for maximum cut and durability.

Take advantage of increased durability and cutting efficiency with 3M Cloth Belt 777F. This belt features a blend of 3M Ceramic Abrasive Grain and aluminum oxide that outperforms aluminum oxide belts in stock removal and metal finishing applications. The heavyweight cloth backing supports high-pressure applications, performs well on heat-sensitive metals, and can be used dry or with lubricant.

3M Cloth Belt 464W is an abrasive sanding belt constructed on a heavy, YF-weight backing that features closed coat construction for aggressive sanding action. The silicon carbide abrasive, Cork Particles and flexible backing make this cloth an ideal product for metal surface sanding and final cosmetic polish, including the required “blue” finish on stainless steel.
