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.

Fast Cutting Aluminum Oxide
Equipped with aluminum oxide abrasive, this disc cuts quickly and lasts longer than traditional abrasives. The mineral self-fractures to expose fresh edges, maintaining cutting efficiency throughout use.
This abrasive is ideal for grinding, deburring, blending, and finishing metal parts. Its fast cut-rate and durability make it a preferred choice for professionals working with ferrous alloys and other materials.
Heat-Resistant Resin Bond
The resin bond on the 3M PSA Cloth Disc 348D protects the disc from heat damage during sanding. This heat resistance helps maintain the bond between abrasive and backing, even under high pressure.
This feature extends the disc’s life, especially in heavy-duty applications where heat buildup is common. It ensures consistent performance and reduces the need for frequent disc changes.
