3M Xtract Paper Disc 236U features a 3M proprietary multi-hole pattern that evacuates dust better than 5- or 6-hole products — dramatically increasing disc life. The design achieves an ideal balance between the abrasive surface and dust extraction holes to maximize cut and optimize the life of the disc. 3M Xtract Paper Disc 236U is excellent for blending and finishing on aluminum and carbon steel, as well as woodworking applications for heavy and medium stock removal and finishing on hardwoods, softwoods, and composites. Our clean sanding discs also work well on primer, paint, sealers, topcoats, fiberglass, and plastics. The strong, C-weight paper backing on our 3M Xtract Paper Disc 236U supports aggressive sanding and minimizes edge wear. An open coat means the abrasive grains have space between them so that dust escapes through the spaces rather than loading the cutting edge of the grains. The load resistant coating allows the disc to continue cutting even when sanding softwoods, paints, and other materials that would, otherwise, clog the disc and hinder sanding ability. Sandpaper discs cut better and last longer when dust isn't loading the cutting surface of the abrasives. Reducing dust is easier than ever with 3M Xtract Discs, designed for optimal dust removal. For maximum dust extraction, use this disc with a 3M Xtract Back-up pad and a random orbital sander with vacuum (both sold separately). Our proprietary multi-hole pattern on 3M Xtract products removes dust at a higher rate than 5- or 6-hole products.Our proprietary multi-hole pattern evacuates dust from the disc at a high rate. This hole design doesn't even require alignment of holes with the disc pad (which is attached to a random orbital sander and sold separately), making disc changes quick and simple. The 3M Hookit attachment system uses a hook and loop design that makes disc changes fast and easy. All of this adds up to improved productivity and reduced material consumption.

Trusted 3M Xtract Brand

The 3M Xtract Paper Disc 236U, model 55521, offers reliable performance with a strong reputation for quality. This product features a P180 C-weight grade, ensuring it meets specific sanding needs with consistent results.

Designed for professionals and hobbyists alike, this disc supports various applications. Its 3-inch size and Hookit attachment system make it easy to use and change during projects.

Strong C-weight Backing

This sanding disc uses a heavyweight C-weight paper backing, which supports aggressive sanding tasks. The backing helps maintain disc durability and reduces edge wear during use.

Such backing is ideal for tough sanding jobs on different surfaces. It ensures the disc holds up well, especially when working with medium to heavy stock removal.

Open Coat Construction Benefits

The open coat design of the 3M Xtract Paper Disc 236U prevents clogging by spacing abrasive grains apart. This feature helps dust escape easily, keeping the cutting surface clean and effective.

Combined with a load-resistant coating, the disc maintains cutting ability even when sanding softwoods, paints, or other clog-prone materials. This extends the life of the disc during use.

Efficient Dust Extraction System

The proprietary multi-hole pattern on this 3-inch disc improves dust extraction significantly. It evacuates dust better than typical 5- or 6-hole discs, which boosts productivity and keeps the work environment cleaner.

This system works well with compatible 3M Xtract Back-up pads and random orbital sanders with vacuum. It also allows quick disc changes without needing to align holes, saving time on the job.

Convenient Pack Size Format

This product comes in a case of 250 discs, packed as 50 discs per carton. Such a large pack size supports extended projects and reduces the need for frequent reordering.

The 3-inch diameter and Hookit attachment system make these discs easy to handle and replace. This format suits busy workshops or production environments requiring consistent sanding supplies.
