3M PSA Cloth Disc 348D is a heavy-duty sanding disc that features a high-strength pressure sensitive adhesive backing that adheres to a backup pad or a steel platen for an efficient application and clean removal.

Our 3M PSA Cloth Disc 348D features a heat-resistant resin bond and cloth backing that make this sanding disc a good choice for high heat and heavy duty sanding applications. Aluminum oxide particles in a closed coat offer a fast cut for grinding and dual action (D/A) sanding on metal. This versatile disc provides a fast, efficient method for deburring, blending, cleaning up, and finishing metal parts and surfaces of various sizes and shapes.

PSA or pressure-sensitive adhesive disc is pressed onto a backup pad (also called a disc pad and sold separately) that is attached to a disc sander, random orbital sander, or stationary disc sander.

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 in use, whereas traditional abrasives such as garnet quickly wear down with use. Due to their fast cut-rate, hardness, strength, and low heat retention, they are 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.

Heat-resistant resin is a sturdy binding agent that adheres the abrasive to the backing and maintains the stability of the bond even in conditions of high heat or pressure.

3M PSA Cloth Disc

The 3M PSA Cloth Disc 348D offers reliable performance with its high-strength pressure sensitive adhesive backing. This feature ensures the disc sticks firmly to a backup pad or steel platen, making it easy to apply and remove.

Designed for efficiency, this model 348D disc supports quick replacement during sanding tasks. Its adhesive backing is a key part of the 3M PSA system, providing a clean and fast changeover on your tools.

Durable X-weight Backing

This sanding disc uses a 60 X-weight cloth backing, which is tough and durable. It supports aggressive sanding applications without tearing or edge wear, making it suitable for heavy-duty use.

The cloth backing helps maintain the disc's shape and strength, allowing it to handle demanding tasks. This backing type is ideal for users who need a long-lasting disc for various surfaces.

Size And Format Details

The disc measures 12 inches in diameter and features a NH (non-hole) format. This size fits many standard disc sanders and is versatile for different sanding projects.

Its format and size make it compatible with a range of tools, including random orbital sanders and stationary disc sanders. This flexibility helps users tackle various metal and woodworking tasks.

Aluminum Oxide Abrasive

The 3M disc uses aluminum oxide abrasive, known for cutting fast and lasting long. This mineral is effective on many surfaces, including metal and wood, providing a smooth finish.

Aluminum oxide's self-fracturing property exposes fresh cutting edges during use, maintaining performance. This makes the disc a solid choice for grinding, deburring, and blending applications.

Pack Count And Protection

This product comes in a pack of 10 discs per case, offering good value for frequent users. Having multiple discs on hand helps maintain workflow without interruption.

The discs also feature a resin bond that protects against heat damage, extending their life. This heat resistance is important for heavy-duty sanding where high temperatures can occur.
