3M Scotch-Brite CS-DC Extra Coarse Grit Silicon Carbide Clean and Strip Disc - 4" x 1/2" Black - Perfect for Metal Surface Prep, Rust Removal & Paint Stripping

From the Manufacturer The 3M™ Scotch-Brite™ Clean and Strip Disc is an extra coarse grade, aggressive, open-web disc engineered to effectively clean welds, remove rust and strip paint. The open construction and aggressive abrasive properties provide a smooth running wheel that resists loading when removing soft coatings. The non-woven disc is a safe alternative to wire brushes, offers a greater surface area, and leaves a finer finish, which may eliminate the need for subsequent finishing steps.The Scotch-Brite™ Clean and Strip Disc uses extra coarse silicon carbide abrasive mineral. Silicon carbide is a synthetic mineral that is very sharp and commonly used for low-pressure applications such as paint prep. While it breaks down faster than aluminum oxide, it produces a superior finish.Scotch-Brite™ industrial abrasives are a unique surface conditioning product with abrasives incorporated into non-woven nylon or other synthetic fibers. Combining abrasives into the fibers creates an abrasive system that delivers consistent results for the life of the product. The open-web material is load resistant and keeps the abrasive minerals cutting at high performance by limiting clogging of the fibers.For more than a century, 3M has applied innovation and technology to improving our customers’ lives and supporting their business goals.
