3M Cubitron 2 II 125mm / 5″ – 982C 36 Grit Sanding Disc 55073 – 25 Pack

Product Description

Experience unmatched performance in metal grinding with 3M Cubitron II Fibre Disc 982C. Engineered with 3M Precision Shaped Grain technology, this 5-inch (125mm) 36-grit disc delivers up to twice the cut-rate, durability, and lifespan of conventional abrasive discs. Its stiff fiber backing and strong resin bond ensure superior tear resistance, making it ideal for heavy-duty carbon steel applications. Reduce operator fatigue with less grinding pressure while achieving precise results in weld removal, chamfering, and surface preparation.

Core Features & Benefits

Applications

Perfect for carbon steel processing including edge chamfering, beveling, weld removal, mill scale cleaning, pit repair, and machining groove preparation. Ideal for metal fabrication shops, automotive repair, and industrial manufacturing where productivity and precision are critical.

Performance Advantages

The proprietary Cubitron II technology creates sharp, self-sharpening grain peaks that slice through metal efficiently. This unique design reduces grinding pressure by up to 30%, lowering operator fatigue while increasing cut rates by 200% compared to conventional ceramic discs. The stiff backing ensures consistent contact with workpieces, delivering uniform results across large surface areas.

Quality Assurance

3M’s decades of abrasive expertise ensure each disc meets strict quality standards. The precision-shaped grains are electrostatically oriented to maximize cutting potential, while the resin bond maintains integrity under extreme grinding conditions. Trusted by professionals worldwide for reliable performance in demanding industrial environments.

Differentiation

Unlike generic abrasive discs, Cubitron II’s triangular grains continuously form new sharp edges during use, eliminating the need for excessive pressure. This results in cooler operation, reduced workpiece damage, and extended disc life¡ªtranslating to lower overall production costs and higher output.
