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 a reliable sanding solution with its pressure sensitive adhesive backing. This feature ensures the disc sticks firmly to backup pads or steel platens, making it easy to apply and remove without mess.

Designed for efficiency, this model 348D disc is ideal for quick replacement during sanding tasks. Its adhesive backing supports smooth transitions between jobs, enhancing productivity on the worksite.

Durable X-weight Backing

This sanding disc features an 80 X-weight cloth backing that stands up to aggressive applications. The durable cloth resists tearing and edge wear, which extends the disc’s usable life during tough sanding jobs.

The 16 inch diameter size combined with the X-weight backing makes it suitable for large surface areas. This backing supports consistent performance even under heavy pressure or extended use.

Aluminum Oxide Abrasive

Equipped with aluminum oxide abrasive, the 3M PSA Cloth Disc 348D cuts fast and lasts longer. This mineral is known for its toughness and ability to self-sharpen, providing a steady cutting edge throughout use.

The abrasive is effective on many surfaces including metal, making it versatile for grinding, deburring, and finishing. Its closed coat design ensures efficient material removal and smooth results.

Heat-Resistant Resin Bond

The resin bond on this disc protects it from heat damage, which is crucial during heavy-duty sanding. This heat resistance helps maintain the bond’s strength and prevents premature wear or failure.

Thanks to this resin bond, the disc performs well in high heat conditions often encountered in metalworking. It keeps the abrasive securely attached to the backing for consistent sanding quality.

Size And Pack Count

The 3M PSA Cloth Disc 348D comes in a 16 inch diameter size with a NH die 1600Z format. This size fits many standard disc sanders, making it a practical choice for various sanding tools.

Each case contains 10 discs, providing a convenient pack count for ongoing projects. This quantity supports continuous work without frequent reordering, ideal for professional or industrial use.
