3M 1182C Precision Shaped Ceramic Grain Grinding Disc, 150 mm, 80 Grit 25

3M Cubitron 3 Series Fibre Disc, 150mm Disc Diameter, 80 Grit size - 7100348572

This Fibre disc is an industrial-grade abrasive designed for high-rate material removal in metalworking and automated processes. It combines precision-shaped ceramic grain on a stiff Fibre backing to cut cooler and Faster than conventional ceramics, making it suitable for heavy-duty grinding tasks in fabrication and manufacturing environments.

Features & Benefits

• Precision-shaped ceramic grain increases sustained cut rate
  Stiff Fibre backing reduces tear and improves durability
  Strong resin bond resists loading under heavy pressure
  Low-temperature cutting reduces thermal damage risk
  22mm centre hole enables secure mounting on standard pads

Applications

• Suitable for weld grinding and bevel preparation in shipyards
  Ideal for flame cut smoothing on carbon steel components
  Used for surface grinding in machinery manufacturing
  Can be used in automated abrasive cells for consistent throughput
  Suitable for deburring and finishing in metal fabrication shops

What maximum operating speed should be observed?

The disc is rated for a maximum safe speed of 200 rpm
exceedance may cause failure.

How does the abrasive handle stainless steel to avoid discolouration?

The triangular precision ceramic grain slices metal at lower temperatures, reducing heat-induced discolouration on heat-sensitive alloys.

What backing and hole configuration allow pad compatibility?

It uses a Fibre backing combined with a 22mm centre hole for compatibility with standard back-up pads.

How is stock supplied for high-volume workshops?

The product is packaged as 100 discs per pack to lower downtime from frequent replacements.

Which abrasive grade is provided for general heavy grinding?

The discs are supplied in an 80 grit specification suited to aggressive stock removal.
