3M Xtract Cubitron II Paper Sheet 732U features a 3M proprietary multi-hole pattern for improved dust extraction in finishing applications. Part of the 3M Xtract Series, designed for optimal dust removal. Its innovative multi-hole pattern extracts dust better than 5- or 6-hole products — increasing cut and dramatically increasing disc life. The design does not need to align with the disc pad holes, making switching the discs fast, easy, and convenient. Featuring ceramic 3M Precision-Shaped 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 sheet that cuts fast and offers long life.

3M Finesse-it Refining Disc 3000 features extra-fast cutting silicon carbide to quickly refine sand scratches left by previous 1200/1500 grade paint leveling steps. These versatile discs are ideal for large area refining/repair. Can be run without water in the pre-buff step.

The 3M Trizact Diamond Polishing Wheel 685DC incorporates advanced 3M technology to deliver a smooth, mirror finish on a variety of tool materials. It can be integrated seamlessly into existing manufacturing processes on a variety of CNC grinding machines.

Discover the 3M Xtract Cubitron II Film Disc 775L multipacks, offering small-quantity assortments with an expanded grade range up to 1000+ so you can easily select the right abrasives for your full process – from stock removal to fine finishing. The discs in this range feature 3M Precision Shaped Ceramic Grain, a revolutionary advancement in abrasive technology. The triangular-shaped ceramic mineral is designed to slice through substrates, rather than gouging or ‘plowing’ like conventional abrasives, providing a disc that cuts up to twice as fast1 and lasts up to six times longer2 than conventional abrasives – all without compromising the finish. These discs are effective on a wide variety of substrates, including metals, composites, all wood, paints, primers, and other coatings.

The durable film backing offers greater tear resistance than paper discs, ensuring additional durability and edge retention for both wet and dry applications. For optimal results, pair these discs with 3M Xtract Random Orbital Sanders to maximize performance and efficiency.

3M Aluminum Oxide Sandpaper is used for general purpose sanding on paint, wood and metal. Be sure to sand with the grain of the wood and always work through a sequence of grits, from coarse to very fine. This sandpaper is made with aluminum oxide mineral.

3M Wetordry Abrasive Disc 401Q is designed for sanding applications that require a fine grit and a light touch, such as auto body sanding and paint finishing. It combines a durable, waterproof backing and fast-cutting silicon carbide mineral for consistent scratch patterns, making for easier buffing. Excellent for wet sanding to control the dust commonly generated during refined jobs.

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.
