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 is designed for heavy-duty sanding tasks. This model features a high-strength pressure sensitive adhesive backing that sticks firmly to backup pads or steel platens, making it easy to apply and remove.

Its pressure sensitive adhesive system allows quick replacement during work, improving efficiency. The 3M brand ensures quality and reliability for professional and industrial use.

Durable X-Weight Backing

This sanding disc uses an 80 X-weight durable cloth backing that supports aggressive sanding without tearing or edge wear. The cloth backing is built to withstand tough applications and maintain integrity over time.

Such durability makes it suitable for heavy-duty jobs where discs face constant pressure and friction. The X-weight backing ensures longer life and consistent performance throughout use.

Size And Format Details

The disc measures 20 inches in diameter and has a NH arbor hole size, fitting many standard sanding machines. This size is ideal for larger surface areas requiring efficient sanding coverage.

It comes in a pack of 10 discs per case, providing enough quantity for extended projects or multiple users. The die 2000D format refers to the specific shape and cut of the disc, suitable for various sanding tools.

Fast Cutting Abrasive

Aluminum oxide abrasive is used in this 3M disc, known for its fast cutting ability and long life. This abrasive type works well on many surfaces, including metals and wood, making it versatile for different tasks.

The abrasive's closed coat design helps maintain cutting efficiency by exposing fresh edges during use. This ensures consistent performance and reduces the need for frequent disc changes.

Heat-Resistant Resin Bond

The disc features a resin bond that protects it from heat damage during sanding. This heat resistance extends the disc's life, even under high pressure and temperature conditions.

This makes the 3M PSA Cloth Disc 348D suitable for heavy-duty sanding and grinding applications where heat buildup is common. The resin bond keeps the abrasive securely attached to the backing for reliable use.
