3M™ Hookit™ Paper Disc 236U, P180 C-weight, 5 in x NH, Die 500X, 50/Pac, 250 ea/Case

Our 3M™ Hookit™ Paper D/F Disc 236U is designed for use with a random orbital sander, the strong C-weight paper backing resists tearing and edge wear during aggressive sanding, and the disc is resin-bonded for heat-resistance, further increasing life and cut. These discs also feature an open coat and a load-resistant coating to enhance dust management and cut-rate. To achieve maximum dust extraction, use this disc with a 3M™ Hookit™ D/F Disc Pad and a 3M™ Random Orbital Sander with vacuum (both sold separately). Sandpaper discs cut better and last longer when dust isn’t loading the cutting surface of the abrasives. The 6-hole dust-management system uses a series of evenly-spaced holes in the abrasive that are aligned with the holes in the disc pad. Suction via a vacuum system is drawn through the holes to collect dust from the air and workpiece, for improved working conditions disc performance, and overall productivity. We gave this disc a load-resistant coating, which allows the disc to continue cutting even when sanding softwoods, paints, and other materials that would, otherwise, clog the surface of the disc and hinder sanding ability. Loading is further reduced by an open coat, which means the abrasive grains are spaced slightly apart so that dust can escape rather than obstructing the cutting edge of the grains, thereby optimizing cut-rate and disc life. Sanding discs come in a variety of forms to fit various power tools and disc pads. A 3M™ Hookit™ Disc conveniently and firmly attaches to a hook-and-loop backup disc pad (sold separately) on a random orbital sander. 3M™ Hookit™ discs are quick and easy to change when switching from one grade to another, and can be reused again and again for the extent of the disc life (whereas adhesive-backed discs are typically discarded after one use because the adhesive backing will not re-adhere a second time). We chose aluminum oxide abrasive, which is a popular choice among industrial professionals because of its fas
