3M Scotch Brite Clean and Strip XT Pro Extra Cut Stripping Disc 178mm x 22mm

Scotch-Brite Clean and Strip XT Pro Extra Cut Disc features aluminium oxide abrasive mineral incorporated into an open nylon web. It is designed to remove heavy rust, thick paint and corrosion while also scratching the base material underneath, which can save you time.

With its reengineered fibre web, the Scotch-Brite Clean and Strip XT Pro Extra Cut Disc allows operators to take advantage of all the benefits that come with increased conformability without compromising strength. With increased conformability, this disc achieves a larger contact area with the workpiece for faster removal rates. It also conforms to weld bead ripples to polish welds without removing them, and works in hard-to-reach areas without damaging the substrate.

Features

• Quickly removes heavy rust, thick paint, corrosion and cleans welds
• Aluminium oxide mineral aggressively removes top layer and cleans to the bare metal underneath
• High conformability provides a larger contact patch for faster removal rates
• High-strength fibre resists chunking and performs well on edges
• Resists loading for consistent cutting action
• High speed rating and low vibration

3M designed Scotch-Brite Clean and Strip XT Pro Extra Cut Discs with aluminium oxide abrasive mineral because of its ability to remove heavy coatings and simultaneously scratch and clean to the bare metal underneath without leaving divots. This means that operators can remove a coating from a workpiece and get it ready for welding or adhesive application with the same disc – saving the time of switching abrasives.

To engineer Scotch-Brite Clean and Strip XT Pro Extra Cut Disc, aluminium oxide mineral is combined with non-woven nylon fibres using resin. Aluminium oxide is a very hard mineral that delivers a high cut rate, commonly used in high-pressure applications like cutting and weld removal. The resin bond strengthens the fiber web and allows it to gradually break down to reveal new fibres and sharp mineral – delivering a consistent cut over the life of the abrasive. The combination of fibre strands, resin and abrasive mineral forms a thick, open web. Gaps in the web allow swarf to escape, minimising loading of the abrasive.

Applications

• Removing heavy rust
• Removing rust pits
• Removing thick paint
• Removing corrosion
• Removing weld discolouration
• Weld cleanup
