3M Screen Cloth Disc Hand Pad Goes Hand in Hand with 3M Screen Cloth Discs
3M Screen Cloth Disc Hand Pad goes hand in hand with 3M Screen Cloth Discs. Use die numbers 500GC (5” diameter with 2 tabs), 600JR (6” diameter with 2 tabs) and 800JM (8” diameter with 2 tabs) (sold separately). Mineral is adhered to both sides of 3M screen cloth discs, so when one side of the disc wears down the other may be used. While operators typically use these discs dry during hand sanding, the screen is water resistant and may be used with a lubricant if necessary.Each disc features two tabs. The holder pad has two “tacks” designed for these tabs. Operators simply pierce the tabs on the disc with the tacks on the hand pad to secure the disc in place. This easy and convenient attachment system eliminates the need for adhesive, which has two key benefits. First, it helps minimize the mess that adhesive can sometimes cause. Second, as one side of the disc is not sacrificed for adhesive, both sides may be used and the disc is put to optimal use.
A Remedy for Small Surface Imperfections
When eliminating surface imperfections, evenly-applied pressure and consistent finishes tend to be top concerns. With these goals in mind, we created the 3M Screen Cloth Disc Hand Pad. This abrasive accessory helps operators apply even pressure to their 3M screen cloth discs and, consequently, the substrate. With a hand strap attached to the back of the pad, the accessory is easy to use and provides access to workpiece areas that may be hard to reach with machines.This hand pad is available in soft and medium densities. A medium density pad is firmer – a good match for highlighting or leveling the surface to reveal high and low spots. A soft density pad is a good match for light scuffing of the substrate.
Prior to applying primer or paint, ridding the substrate of small imperfections is no easy task. We know that operators value a clean, polished look. The 3M Screen Cloth Disc Hand Pad was engineered to help them get there.
Trusted 3M Screen Cloth
The 3M Screen Cloth Disc Hand Pad 02712 is designed to work seamlessly with 3M Screen Cloth Discs, ensuring reliable performance. This hand pad supports the discs perfectly, making it easier to handle and apply pressure evenly.
Operators can use this 5 in x 1 in pad to tackle surface imperfections with confidence. Its compatibility with 3M’s system means you get consistent results every time, whether for automotive or other repair tasks.
Precise Size And Format
This hand pad measures 5 inches by 1 inch, providing a comfortable size for detailed work. The dimensions allow for easy maneuvering in tight spaces, making it ideal for scuffing and highlighting small surface areas.
Its format includes a hand strap for a secure grip, which helps maintain control during use. The 10 ea/Case pack size means you have plenty of pads on hand for multiple projects or extended use.
Effective Hand Strap Design
The built-in hand strap on the 3M Screen Cloth Disc Hand Pad 02712 offers a firm grip and secure hand placement. This design reduces fatigue and improves precision when sanding or scuffing surfaces by hand.
With the strap, operators can reach difficult areas more easily than with machines. This feature enhances comfort and control, making the pad a practical choice for detailed surface preparation.
Dual-Sided Disc Usage
The pad uses tacks to hold the discs in place, eliminating the need for adhesive. This means both sides of the 3M Screen Cloth Discs can be used, maximizing the life of each disc and reducing waste.
Because adhesive isn’t required, the process stays cleaner and more efficient. This setup supports the 10 ea/Case pack, allowing operators to get the most value from their supplies.
Versatile Density Options
The 3M Screen Cloth Disc Hand Pad 02712 comes in soft and medium densities, letting operators choose the best pad for their project. Medium density pads are firmer for leveling surfaces, while soft pads are better for light scuffing.
This flexibility helps achieve consistent finishes on various substrates. Using the right density with the 5 in x 1 in pad ensures effective surface preparation before primer or paint application.
