3M Cubitron II Stikit Paper Disc Roll 732U features 3M Precision Shaped Ceramic Grain, a revolutionary advancement in abrasive technology. The triangular shaped ceramic mineral is designed to slice through the substrate, rather than gouging or “plowing” like conventional abrasives, resulting in a disc that cuts fast and offers long life.

A medium to hard density wheel engineered with increased edge durability, the Standard Abrasives Quick Change Silicon Carbide 700 Series Unitized Wheel is a good match for tough finishing applications on smaller areas of the workpiece. This non-woven abrasive wheel provides the durability needed for achieving a fine finish even on hard metals such as titanium.

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.

Scotch-Brite Coating Removal Disc features extra coarse (XCS) silicon carbide mineral to effectively remove paint and rust from metal surfaces and welds. Together with the conformable, non-woven material, silicon carbide abrasives remove coatings without gouging, undercutting, or damaging the base material, especially on hard surfaces.

3M Diamond Resin Wheel 634AH is a general purpose wheel designed for the production and re-sharpening of tungsten carbide-tipped saw blades. This wheel offers high material removal rates and good form retention.

Operators convert the Scotch-Brite Cut and Polish Unitized Block into custom sizes and shapes for their unique applications. This tightly layered, durable, unitized abrasive block is available in fine and medium densities, and works well for aggressive deburring, blending and finishing on harder metals.

The 3M Grippy Sanding Cloths are designed for hand sanding application in paint preparation and paint finishing processes.

3M Sanding Block is a professional grade tool that helps you achieve your best, fastest sanding work in auto body and other jobs.

If you need to hand finish a tight spot, you can rely on the 3M Hookit Dust Free Sanding Block. This backing block helps you get consistent results while reducing the strain on your hands. This block uses the Hookit attachment system for easy abrasive changes and small holes for use with a vacuum attachment to reduce dust and loading. These make it ideal for sanding filler, primer and more.

3M Flap Disc 577F tackles the toughest high-pressure metalworking applications and leaves a blended finish, all in a single step. This abrasive flap disc features fast-cutting alumina zirconia mineral on durable polyester-backed flaps for extra cutting power, and long life on heavy duty applications such as weld removal, sharp-edge work, and beveling.
