Product Details
The 3M Utility Cloth Roll measures 1-1/2" W x 50 Yd and is made from aluminum oxide with a grit rating of 150. This product allows for the desired length of the strip to be torn from the roll, catering to specific applications. The aluminum oxide abrasive is versatile, suitable for use on ferrous and non-ferrous metals, wood, and plastic. Its light J-weight cloth backing provides the necessary flexibility to conform to circular edges, angles, or other contours, maintaining durability even when bent or rolled without tearing or shelling. The cloth can be torn by hand to create smaller pieces without compromising the sanding surface. Aluminum oxide is favored by industrial professionals for its fast cut-rate and long life, as it self-fractures to expose fresh cutting edges, in contrast to traditional natural abrasives that dull more rapidly. This mineral's fast cut-rate, hardness, and strength make it suitable for a variety of grinding applications in addition to sanding and finishing. The closed-coat sanding surface ensures that the abrasive mineral covers 100% of the surface for maximum cutting efficiency. Key applications include cleaning, contour finishing, deburring, and rust removal, and it is widely used across industries such as marine and MRO.
