Product Details
The 3M utility cloth roll measures 1 inch wide by 20 yards long and features aluminum oxide abrasive with a P320 grit. The desired length of the strip can be torn from the roll for specific applications. Most grades have a light, J-weight cloth backing that provides the flexibility needed to conform to circular edges, angles, or other contours, while rolls in grades P50 or P60 have a slightly stiffer X-weight backing suitable for more coarse sanding applications. The cloth remains durable even when bent or rolled without tearing or shelling, but strips can be torn by hand when smaller pieces are needed without compromising the sanding surface. Aluminum oxide is selected for its fast cut-rate and long life, as it is a tough, durable abrasive that self-fractures to expose fresh cutting edges, making it suitable for a wide variety of materials including ferrous and non-ferrous metals, wood, and plastic. Typical applications include blending, cleaning, contour finishing, deburring, and rust removal, with primary industries served being marine, metalworking, and maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO).
