Product Description
-------------------
Boost productivity in your shop with the fast-cutting,
long-lasting 3M Cubitron II Fibre Disc 982C. This ceramic
grinding disc uses 36+ grit 3M Precision-Shaped Grain to generate
up to twice the cut-rate of other fibre discs. This ceramic grain
lasts exceptionally long, continuously fracturing into
super-sharp points and edges that slice cleanly through metal. By
grinding faster than other discs, this 3M fibre disc allows you
to complete more parts and boost productivity. The built-in
tinnerman nut (TN) quick change attachment allows for easy
screw-on disc changes. A stiff fiber backing and strong resin
bond mean this resin fibre disc is durable enough for heavyweight
applications like high-pressure weld grinding and beveling. With
durability comes longer abrasive life, reducing the a of
time spent changing out abrasives and further boosting
productivity. All of these metal grinding productivity gains come
with less grinding pressure exerted by the operator. In robotic
or pressure-assisted operations, 3M Cubitron II Fibre Disc 982C
helps reduce downtime in the cell by lasting exceptionally long
and maintaining a high cut-rate through the entire life of the
disc. This 4.5 inch grinding disc can be used with either
pneumatic or electric tools. 3M 982C fibre disc is optimized for
use on carbon steel. For stainless steel, consider using 3M™
Cubitron II Fibre Disc 987C
From the Manufacturer
---------------------
The 3M™ Cubitron™ II Fibre Disc 982C with TN quick-change
attachment delivers superior optimum performance and productivity
with less operator igue when tackling high pressure grinding
applications such as medium to heavy-duty stock removal on carbon
steel applications. Featuring 3M’s exceptionally high-performing
ceramic Precision-Shaped Grain (PSG) combined with a stiff fiber
backing, this disc is an excellent choice for edge chamfering,
beveling, and removing carbon steel welds, mill scale, pits and
imperfections, machining grooves, and more. It delivers
outstanding cut rates and disc life, runs cooler, and requires
less grinding pressure than other conventional ceramic discs. The
stiff fiber backing and strong resin bond provide added
durability and tear-resistance for heavyweight applications such
as high-pressure weld grinding, and support wet or dry
applications.
Experience the Powerful Performance of 3M™ Cubitron™ II
3M Cubitron II products have raised the bar for high-performing
abrasives. 3M™ Precision-Shaped Grain outcuts and outlasts
conventional ceramic industrial abrasives and requires less
grinding force to achieve superior performance. The result is
that operators can grind faster and complete more parts per disc
with less muscle-work and igue.
To create PSG, 3M engineers started with 3M™ Ceramic Abrasive
Grain and used proprietary technology to form the grains into
triangular structures and electrostatically orient them on the
backing to form sharp peaks that maximize cutting potential.
These peaks slice cleanly through metal like a through
butter, rather than gouging or plowing as traditional abrasives
do, and continuously self-sharpen as the points break off. This
generates a super-fast cut and lessens heat build-up due to
friction, reducing heat-related stress cracks and discoloration.
PSG also wears evenly, and because the abrasive itself stays
cooler and sharper, Cubitron II products last significantly
longer than their conventional ceramic counterparts, ensuring
extended high performance in production applications.
Disc Changes are Quicker with TN Quick Change Attachment
A TN attachment fiber disc has a 7/8 inch center hole that holds
a thin gauge metal single-use nut, eliminating the need for a
separate disc retainer nut. This TN assembly provides convenient
attachment to and removal from the tool, making it easy to switch
discs between applications. TN stands for Tinnerman Nut and is
named after the company that originally invented this system.
Fiber Discs—Ideal for Tough Grinding Applications
Fiber discs are heavy-duty discs ideal for weld removal,
grinding, and blending large and small areas of metal surfaces.
They feature a tough, stiff backing made from hardened fibers
that resist wear and can handle tough grinding applications.
