Product Description
- 3M Hookit discs are easy to change and reuse, maximizing utility for the life of the disc
- Aluminum oxide abrasive offers a fast cut, long life, and professional performance on many surfaces
- Load-resistant coating prevents dust and debris from clogging the disc
- Open coat construction provides a more aggressive cut
- Tear-resistant film backing provides a close-tolerance, consistent finish
Our 3M Hookit hook-and-loop attachment works well by enabling easy re-use when switching between grades before the discs are worn out. The open coat feature provides a more aggressive cut than a comparable closed coat abrasive of the same grade, and the disc's load-resistant coating reduces clogging of the disc, making this a good choice for woodworking and other applications where loading hinders performance. Designed for use with a random orbital sander, this disc comes in a range of grades for fine sanding and finishing, and is resin-bonded for reliable performance under high heat and pressure.
We chose aluminum oxide abrasive, which is a popular choice among industrial professionals because of its fast cut-rate and long life. This mineral makes a tough, durable abrasive that self-fractures to expose fresh cutting edges, whereas traditional natural abrasives dull more quickly. Due to its fast cut-rate, hardness, and strength, it is widely used in grinding applications in addition to sanding and finishing applications.
Aluminum oxide is suitable for a wide variety of materials in both woodworking and metalworking, including ferrous alloys. Coated abrasive discs cut better and last longer when dust isn't clogging the cutting surface of the abrasives. Open coat construction means the abrasive grains are placed with space between them to help evacuate sanding dust and other debris to avoid clogging the cutting edge of the grains. The load-resistant coating also allows the disc to continue cutting even when sanding softwoods, paints, and other materials that would, otherwise, clog the disc and hinder sanding ability. Additionally, the open coat feature provides a more aggressive cut than a comparable closed coat abrasive of the same grade. All of this adds up to increased productivity and reduced material consumption.
Here at 3M we offer a complete line of hook-and-loop style Hookit discs for work spaces where adhesive backed discs may become contaminated by dust, dirt, or flying debris. They are often used in applications where a 3M Stikit disc may be too aggressive, as Hookit discs tend to leave finer finishes than adhesive backed discs. Hookit sanding discs conveniently and firmly attach to a hook-and-loop backup disc pad (sold separately) on a random orbital sander, can be removed cleanly and easily, and can be re-used again and again for the extent of the abrasive life.
Trusted 3M Hookit Quality
The 3M Hookit Gold Film Disc 255L, model 00964, offers reliable performance with the trusted 3M brand behind it. These discs are designed for easy changing and reusing, maximizing the utility throughout the disc’s life.
With the Hookit hook-and-loop attachment system, switching between grades is simple and efficient. This model supports a professional workflow by reducing downtime and waste.
Fast Cut Aluminum Oxide
Featuring P150 grade aluminum oxide abrasive, this disc delivers a fast cut and long life. Aluminum oxide is known for its toughness and ability to self-fracture, exposing fresh cutting edges for consistent performance.
This abrasive is ideal for wood, paint prep, and defect repair, making the 3M 255L disc a versatile choice for many surfaces and applications.
Durable Film Backing Benefits
The 5 inch x NH die 500X film backing on this disc provides tear resistance and a close-tolerance, consistent finish. This backing is more flexible and durable than paper, suited for high-production environments.
This film backing helps maintain uniform sanding results, especially when used with a random orbital sander, ensuring a smooth and professional finish every time.
Open Coat Load Resistance
Open coat construction spaces abrasive grains to prevent clogging, while the load-resistant coating keeps dust and debris from hindering performance. This means the disc cuts aggressively without losing effectiveness.
These features make the disc especially useful when sanding softwoods, paints, and other materials prone to clogging, improving productivity and reducing material waste.
Convenient Pack Size Format
This product comes in a pack of 100 discs per carton, with 4 cartons per case, providing a total of 400 discs. This format supports large-scale projects and ensures you have enough discs on hand.
The 3M Hookit Gold Film Disc 255L is designed for use with a random orbital sander, making it easy to attach and remove thanks to the hook-and-loop system, enhancing workflow efficiency.
