3M Cubitron™ II Ceramic Sanding Disc, 178mm, P60 Grit, 3M™ Cubitron™ II 982C

3M™ Cubitron™ II Fibre Disc 982C contains a 3M Precision Shaped Grain engineered to offer up to twice the cut-rate surpassing other conventional discs in both performance and longevity. The Cubitron™ II Fibre Disc is designed to maximise cutting effectiveness, minimising grinding pressure and operator fatigue.

The 982C disc contains 3M Precision Shaped Grain which forms into triangularly shaped grains and electrostatically positioned onto the backing. The grains then act as individual cutting tools, reducing metal discolouration with extreme efficiency. The disc is worn evenly and continuously self sharpens until the points break off. This reduces the heat build-up due to friction and extends the life of the disc.

Using the 3M™ Cubitron™ II 982C outperforms conventional ceramic discs. This fibre wheel is well-suited to edge chamfering, machining grooves, removing steel welds and more

3M Precision Shaped Grain technology cuts exceptionally fast with less pressure, outperforming all conventional ceramic industrial abrasive discs

Lasts up to twice as long as conventional discs

Get significantly longer disc life, completing more parts per disc with fewer disc changes required

With triangular shaped ceramic grain that wears evenly, runs cool and optimises the mineral breakdown

Durable and tear resistant with a stiff fibre backing and strong resin bond for high-pressure weld grinding and bevelling

Minimises operator fatigue with 3M Precision Shaped Grain reducing grinding pressure

Recommended using a backing plate with this disc.

These heavy-duty fibre discs are great for weld removals, grinding and blending large and small metal areas. This could occur in industries such as farm and construction, automotive, ship and boat building, metal fabrication.

3M™ Cubitron™ II Fibre Discs provide a fast cut and a long life, making them ideal for a large volume of productive applications.

No, these are not recommended to be used on wood, just the metals.

This abrasive disc features a 178mm diameter and is made from ceramic abrasive material for enhanced durability and performance. Utilising 3M's proprietary Ceramic Precision Shaped Grain (PSG) mineral, the disc is suitable for medium sanding applications and is effective at beveling, weld preparation, and general sanding tasks.

• Resin bond increases lifespan and performance
• Designed for use at high speeds up to 8600r/min
• Compatible with 3M recommended backup pads for safe operations

• Beveling metal edges
• Weld grinding and preparation
• General sanding needs
• Mechanical industries
• Achieving a fine finish

It should be stored between 16°C and 26°C for optimal longevity.

No, these discs are not recommended for use on wood.

As the triangular-shaped grain wears, it continually breaks apart, forming sharp points and edges that cut through metal, ensure even wear, and deliver extended durability and consistent performance under all grinding pressures.
