Products Description
- The tear-resistant disc withstands heavy usage, prolonging abrasive service life
- Fast-cutting aluminum oxide mineral provides a uniform finish
- Pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) backing for easy attachment to abrasive tools
- May be run wet to reduce loading and airborne residue
- It may be used on a variety of substrates, including metals, hardwoods and softwoods
Achieve Close-Tolerance Finishes
Aluminum oxide is suitable for a wide variety of materials in both woodworking and metalworking, including ferrous alloys. It cuts aggressively without significantly altering part geometry, which is great for applications like finishing and paint prep – when you want to maintain the part’s original shape.
Available in a wide range of grades, these discs are color-coded for easy selection of grit and reduced risk of error.
Run Wet or Dry
These 3M Hookit Microfinishing Sanding Sheets are water-resistant, so they can be run wet or dry. Coolant generally extends abrasive life, increases cut rate, and prevents loading. The high-strength film backing maintains its strength and flexibility when paper will degrade when run wet, which makes it an excellent choice for use on a variety of woods and automotive applications.
Focus on the Task, Not the Tool with Hookit™ Attachment
Microfinishing Film 268L utilizes the 3M™ Hookit™ hook-and-loop attachment system, which allows the operator to focus more on the task and less on the tool. 3M Hookit Microfinishing Sanding Sheet products are manufactured with loop material that attaches to a backup pad (sold separately) where tiny hooks firmly engage the loops.
Attachment is quick, easy, and secure. Sanding, finishing, and surface conditioning products with the hook-and-loop attachment and removal system are efficient for working through multi-step finishing processes and are ideal for environments where dust and debris are common. 3M Hookit Microfinishing Sanding Sheet products with a Hookit™ attachment can be used again and again for the life of the abrasive, unlike pressure-sensitive adhesive attachments.
